概要

Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Sunday, February 15th.

We're starting this morning with a dramatic incident from last night in Lower Burrell. Police responded to Rodgers Drive around six thirty Saturday evening after reports that someone had fired shots into a nearby home. When officers arrived, the suspect exited the residence and made statements asking police to shoot him. The Westmoreland County SWAT team was called in, and they established a perimeter while negotiators tried to make contact. The individual refused to communicate, and after additional attempts to get them to exit safely, the suspect fired multiple rounds through a window at SWAT operators. Officers returned fire, striking the individual. The suspect was airlifted to a Pittsburgh hospital for treatment. No officers were injured in the exchange.

On a more positive note for our city, Pittsburgh's Department of Public Works had quite the Saturday. Thirty DPW trucks fanned out across the city starting at six in the morning for what they're calling a pothole blitz. Using cold patch material that doesn't require heating, crews worked to fill potholes reported to the city's three one one line. Mayor Cory O'Connor joined the crews to thank them for their hard work. He acknowledged that pothole season is lasting a bit longer this year, but the city is staying on top of the issue with more work coming as the weather shifts in the coming weeks.

Speaking of weather, we had a beautiful Valentine's Day yesterday with sunny and warm conditions, and we're looking at more pleasant weather today before things get a bit unsettled again in the coming weeks.

In real estate news, Pittsburgh's spring housing market is gaining real momentum. After years of sellers holding most of the power, we're seeing a growing supply of home listings beginning to reshape negotiations in the Pittsburgh region. That's creating more opportunities for buyers who've been waiting on the sidelines.

Looking at the week ahead, our listeners should keep an eye out for any community events as we head into the latter part of February. If you haven't checked out the three one one app for reporting potholes or other city issues, now is a good time to do so.
