Police responded to a 911 call from a residential home in Wilkinsburg, PA around 11 p.m., Wednesday night. Authorities believe two shooters conducted the mayhem, from two different angles with two different guns, and than fled on foot. Lt. Andrew Schurman of the Allegheny County homicide unit describes the incident as an ambush-style attack.

Three women and one man were killed at the scene, all in the same area near the back porch while trying to flee. The fifth death took place later in the hospital of another women succumbing to her injuries. Three others were taken away in ambulances, including two men whom were listed in critical condition and a woman in stable condition. Police are working on the victims identifications.

A witness told Channel 11 news that while walking home, she heard 26 gunshots. The investigation is ongoing and thus far police have not released any information on the suspects. Rest in peace to the lives lost in another unfortunate, ruthless attack.
