A 30-year-old man was in critical condition Friday after he was shot in the stomach in Duquesne, according to police.
The shooting was reported shortly after 10:30 a.m. at the intersection of Grant Street and Route 837.
City of Duquesne Police officers and paramedics dispatched to the intersection found the man shot once in the stomach, according to Allegheny County Police Inspector Andrew Schurman.
The man was taken to a local hospital. Police didn’t identify him.
Schurman said at this point in the investigation it appears the man was driving his SUV and stopped at a traffic light.
According to Schurman, the man exited his SUV and walked over to a dark color sedan, which was occupied by a man and woman. An argument started and the man driving of the sedan shot the victim, detectives said. The sedan fled the area in the direction of Homestead.
Detectives are searching for video along the route the sedan fled.
There is no other description to release at this time, Schurman said.
