At approximately 8:25 p.m., Pittsburgh Police from Zone 3 were dispatched to the 400 block of Brownsville Road for reports of a male shot.

Arriving officers were initially unable to locate a victim in the vicinity. Approximately twenty minutes later, a neighboring jurisdiction informed Pittsburgh Police they had a male in their care who matched the victim description.

The adult male had sustained a gunshot wound to his abdomen. He was conscious, alert, and speaking with officers and medics; and was transported in stable condition by Pittsburgh EMS to an area hospital.

The victim is uncooperative with officers and, at this time, a crime scene has still not been located.

Violent Crime Unit detectives are investigating. The investigation is ongoing.
