Story summary

On Thursday night, a shooting erupted near George K. Cupples Stadium in Pittsburgh's South Side during an event following a high school football game between Westinghouse High School and University Prep. At least three people — two men and one woman, all believed to be teenagers — were wounded by gunfire and rushed to the hospital in stable condition. The incident occurred around 9:50 PM after police had already responded to break up an altercation; they were still on site when shots rang out near South 9th and East Carson streets, as well as South 7th and Cabot streets. Police Chief Jason Lando stated that the shooting happened while officers were attempting to control a fight, and a manhunt is currently underway for the shooter. The exact cause of the shooting remains unclear, but it disrupted an ongoing postgame interview with players from Westinghouse Academy who had just won their game.
