Chilly Morning, Gunfire in East Liberty, Job Market Turbulence, and Baseball Highlights | Pittsburgh Local Pulse

  • サマリー

  • Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 22. We start our day with a quick update on the weather. Expect a chilly morning with clouds and a few scattered showers still lingering from last night’s cold front, especially north of Route 422 and the Turnpike. Roads could be slick in those spots, so take it easy on your morning commute. By midday, we’ll get some sun poking through, with highs reaching the upper 40s. It looks like spring’s taking its time to settle in, but we should see a gradual warming trend toward the weekend.

    Our top news this morning is a developing story out of East Liberty. Just before 1 a.m., police responded to reports of gunfire near North Euclid Avenue and East Liberty Boulevard. A 16-year-old boy suffered a graze wound to the head but is in stable condition at the hospital. Police recovered shell casings on Borland Street, and a nearby home was hit by bullets. Fortunately, no other injuries were reported. The investigation is ongoing, with officers working to obtain video footage, but so far, no arrests have been made. Public safety remains a priority, and anyone with information should contact city police.

    In business news, we’re seeing a little turbulence in the local job market. The latest industrial real estate report shows Pittsburgh’s industrial sector took a slight downturn in the first quarter, despite several new leases being signed in the region. With shifting tariffs and economic pressure, some companies are treading carefully, but there are still opportunities as new spaces open up around town. Meanwhile, local farmers are encouraging us all to shop regional, supporting neighbors and keeping our dollars close to home, especially with food costs still unsettled by global events.

    On the real estate front, while the industrial numbers are a bit softer, residential neighborhoods remain steady. No major developments announced overnight, but the steady demand for homes near downtown and along the rivers continues to shape our cityscape.

    For our community calendar, the Pittsburgh Technology Council welcomes new members this Thursday at their Lawrenceville office. If you’re new to the tech scene, this is a great networking opportunity. Also, registration has just opened for the 2025 Great Race, our beloved fall run through the city, so check that out if you’re looking for fitness goals.

    Turning to sports, all eyes are on the high school baseball diamond today. Pine-Richland hosts Shaler in a battle for first place in Section 3-5A. Shaler leads with a perfect section record, but Pine-Richland is right behind with just one loss this season and plenty of momentum. Local talent shines, with New Castle’s Keara Mangieri making headlines for hitting three homers in a single game this week.

    On a lighter note, the U.S. Steel eaglet is growing fast, and the community is preparing to name the new arrival—always a favorite springtime tradition here.

    That’s a wrap for today’s local updates. This has been Pittsburgh Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
