PITTSBURGH — Charges have been filed in a shooting that happened across the street from the Target in East Liberty last month.
An arrest warrant has been issued for Andre Webb for several charges, including two counts of aggravated assault and carrying a gun without a license.
The shooting happened on February 15 around 6:15 p.m. in the 6200 block of Penn Avenue. Police said they found the 21-year-old victim leaning up against the window at Target when they arrived. He was taken to a hospital in stable condition.
Detectives said that around the time of the shooting, Webb was seen on surveillance video in a nearby clothing store. A witness who knew him helped police to identify him. Webb allegedly came back to the store after leaving and was seen throwing a stolen shoebox back through the front doors.
Longtime residents of East Liberty were upset to hear what happened and hope Webb is behind bars soon.
“It’s so sad when I turn the news on and hear every day of a shooting,” said Jerry Murry. “I pray that these young people will put these weapons down and do what they need to do for them and their community to keep it safe.”
Webb has not yet been taken into custody.
