An “extremely active” shooting situation is ongoing in Pittsburgh after authorities attempted an eviction, city spokesperson Maria Montano said Wednesday.

Shots are “continuing to be fired” after the Allegheny County Sheriff’s Office tried to evict a resident in the Garfield area and the suspect opened fire on deputies, officials said.

    Went to school right in Allengheny county, thankfully didn’t get caught up in active shooter situation in the two odd years I was there, but that was in 2009 and ‘murica felt like a very different place back then. It wasn’t bursting at its seams and as fractured as it is right now. Still think of Pittsburgh as my adopted home but from where I am, the country is in a sorry and divided state.
