1 dead after shooting on Jenny Lind Street in McKeesport
MCKEESPORT, Pa. (KDKA) — One person is dead after a shooting in McKeesport on Friday.
Allegheny County police said around 5 p.m., officials were notified of a shooting on Jenny Lind Street. First responders found a man who was shot in the trunk and head inside a home. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Sources say a father called 911 after finding his son shot inside a home.
"I have no clue who would kill him," said Mae Hudson, who lives near where the shooting happened.
Hudson told KDKA-TV that she knew the man and he does not bother anyone.
"He's a kind guy, he's everybody's friend," she said.
The shooting can't help but remind her of the death of her son, who was shot and killed 10 years ago in the same neighborhood.
"McKeesport is just in trouble," Hudson said. "It's just not going to stop."
She said she is sick of the gun violence.
"I've got kids, I've got grandkids," Hudson said. "I'm afraid for them."
It is not clear if there are any suspects or arrests. Anyone with information can call the police at 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
