Police say a second person was involved in one of the reported shootings near IUP Campus on Saturday.
On Sunday, police said a resident near the area of School Street and West Avenue found a 9mm shell on their back porch and called authorities. Officers searched the area and found two more 9mm shells and some possible bullet holes in a house and car. On Monday, police received video showing Tymere Johnson exchanging gunfire with a second unidentified individual around 10:00 PM. Johnson was carrying a stolen .40 caliber handgun at the time while the video showed the other individual had the 9mm gun.
Johnson was arrested by police after he got in a car and fled. The other suspect fled on foot. Anyone with information can call police at 724-349-2121.
Police are also continuing to investigate the second reported incident that happened in the area of South 7th and Locust Streets. There is still no indication that anyone was injured or specifically targeted in the incident, but police now say a large group was seen running from the area and it was reported that a gunshot was heard. Investigators are looking for witnesses and potential video from the general area for other details. People are asked to call them if they have more information.
