 Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Saturday, January tenth, twenty twenty six.

We wake up today with our attention on East Liberty, where Pittsburgh police use pepper spray to break up a large fight outside Obama Academy on South Euclid Avenue after a school sporting event. According to WPXI, officers respond to a crowd of about two hundred juveniles in the parking lot, with forty to fifty actively fighting. Police restore order, and thankfully there are no reported injuries or arrests, but we know families across the city are talking about how we keep our kids safe after games.

From city hall, we have a big change at the top. The city officially swears in Corey OConnor as the sixty second mayor of Pittsburgh this week. The city announcement highlights his early focus on public safety, neighborhood investment, and better coordination on snow and storm response, something we feel every time we drive Centre Avenue, Banksville Road, or up over the Hill in winter weather.

Speaking of weather, we are dealing today with classic January cold. Forecasters say we stay in the low to mid thirties with clouds, a light breeze off the rivers, and the chance of some flurries later, especially up along Mount Washington and the North Hills. It is cold enough that we want to bundle up for trips to Market Square, the Strip District, or the North Shore, but roads stay mainly wet. Looking ahead to tonight and tomorrow, we hold near freezing with more clouds than sun, so outdoor plans may be chilly but manageable.

On the health front, WPXI reports that three local Planned Parenthood branches in our region are temporarily shutting down because of staffing issues and what the organization calls ongoing political attacks. That means some women seeking reproductive care, cancer screenings, and basic health services will be rerouted to other locations, adding travel and wait times for many in our neighborhoods.

In business news, CBS Pittsburgh reports that the Macys at Pittsburgh Mills Mall is among the locations closing, another hit to brick and mortar retail in our region. At the same time, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette reports on a North Side startup, StockSnips, using artificial intelligence to read financial news and pick stocks, a reminder that our local economy continues to lean into tech even as traditional retail pulls back.

For jobs, statewide surveys reported by MyChesCo show young Pennsylvanians, including here in Pittsburgh, feeling less optimistic about career prospects in twenty twenty six, worried about automation and the cost of living. We feel this in Oakland, Lawrenceville, and along Penn Avenue, where more of us are juggling multiple gigs and watching rents climb.

In cultural news, CBS Pittsburgh notes that Bruno Mars is bringing his Romantic Tour to Acrisure Stadium this summer, so today might be the day some of us start planning that big night on the North Shore. And filming continues to position Pittsburgh as a backdrop for major TV dramas, keeping our local crews and performers busy.

On the sports side, the Steelers are gearing up for their first home playoff game with a full stadium since twenty eighteen, and local outlets are already talking about the surge in revenue expected for downtown bars and restaurants from the North Shore to the Golden Triangle. The Penguins keep momentum going after a solid win over New Jersey, and the Pirates make moves, including the addition of first baseman Ryan O’Hearn, as they quietly reshape the roster at PNC Park.

For our feel good story, CBS Pittsburgh highlights two local rescue dogs, brothers Niklaus and Kol, who are competing in this years Puppy Bowl. It is a fun spotlight for our animal rescue community and a reminder that a shelter pet from right here in Pittsburgh can end up on a national stage.

We will keep tracking any updates from city hall, neighborhood events in places like Bloomfield, Squirrel Hill, and the South Side, and any late breaking safety alerts so we can move through our day informed and connected.
