A man was hospitalized in critical condition after being shot in the torso during a suspected burglary at his home in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania. The shooting incident, which transpired last night, triggered an immediate investigation by the Allegheny County Police Department's homicide unit, according to details from a report by WPXI.
Police were summoned to the scene on the 2200 block of McNary Boulevard at approximately 7:52 p.m., where they discovered the victim suffering from a gunshot wound.
