Pittsburgh police say a woman was found with multiple gunshot wounds after they responded to a Shotspotter alert in Homewood South on Friday, Dec. 2, 2022.

A woman was shot multiple times during a fight with another woman early Friday in Homewood South, according to Pittsburgh police.

Officers from the Zone 5 station responded to a Shotspotter alert just after 3 a.m. indicating that seven shots were fired in the 700 block of Brushton Avenue. At the scene, police said they found a woman with gunshot wounds to the stomach and leg, according to a Pittsburgh Public Safety spokesman.

A tourniquet was applied by an officer to control the bleeding before emergency medical personnel arrived to take her to a hospital, the spokesman said. She was in critical condition.

Police said witnesses told investigators two women were fighting before shots were fired. A woman was detained at the scene, police said.
