  • Pittsburgh Pulse: City Council Eyes Sick Leave Boost, Tragic Crash, and Arson Investigation
    2025/04/15
    Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 15, 2025.

    We start today with updates from City Hall, where Pittsburgh City Council is considering changes to the city’s paid sick leave policy. If approved, residents working in the city could see an increase in the amount of sick time they can accrue. City Council President Dan Lavelle is leading the charge to boost benefits for workers, a move that could affect thousands of families across the region.

    In a tragic development from over the weekend, a multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 376 westbound resulted in two fatalities and two injuries. Traffic in that area has returned to normal, but our thoughts are with the families and victims impacted by the accident.

    Turning to public safety, an arson investigation is underway after a man confessed to setting fire to a home in Squirrel Hill during Passover. Police report that the suspect admitted to harboring hostility toward the residents. Separately, detectives are investigating a late-night shooting in Lincoln-Lemington-Belmar, where a man was hospitalized in critical condition. Authorities are working closely with the District Attorney’s office to determine next steps.

    On a lighter note, the Pittsburgh Pirates thrilled fans last night with an offensive explosion in their win against the Nationals, setting season highs in both runs and hits. The team's momentum is energizing as they look ahead to their homestand at PNC Park this week. Meanwhile, high school sports saw a standout performance from the North Allegheny Tigers, who secured a state title in boys' volleyball over the weekend.

    For the arts and culture enthusiasts, Pittsburgh is celebrating World Malbec Day all week long. Balvanera, an Argentinian restaurant in the Strip District, is hosting tastings and events dedicated to the famous Argentinian wine. Meanwhile, the historic Casino Theatre in Vandergrift, southwest of the city, is gearing up for an exciting lineup of shows. It’s a great opportunity to pair a bit of history with your entertainment.

    Real estate continues to buzz as home prices across Pittsburgh remain steady. The median price in the city is hovering just above $225,000, with neighborhoods like Lawrenceville and Bloomfield seeing increased demand. On the business front, rumors of a new bakery opening in the East Liberty area have locals eager for sweet treats.

    Looking ahead, the weather is shaping up to be spring-like today with scattered clouds and a high of 60 degrees. Light showers are possible late in the evening, so you might want to keep an umbrella handy. The rest of the week looks mild, with temperatures staying in the 50s and 60s.

    In community news, Animal Friends is representing western Pennsylvania in the Tour for Life, a national series of pet adoption events. If you’re looking for a furry friend, this weekend might be the perfect time to find one.

    Finally, a feel-good moment to brighten your day—students at Pittsburgh CAPA 6-12 dominated the Pennsylvania State Art Competition, bringing home 15 individual awards. Their creativity and hard work are making our city proud.

  • "Tragic Shootings, Pleasant Weather, and Roaring Music - Your Pittsburgh Local Pulse Update"
    2025/04/12
    Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Saturday, April 12, 2025. Let’s dive into what’s happening around the city today.

    First, in breaking news, police responded to a tragic scene in Rostraver on Lenity School Road, where a woman was found shot and killed. Her death has been ruled a homicide, and investigations are ongoing. In Wilkinsburg, a driver was shot in an incident that led to their vehicle catching fire after it crashed. Public safety officials are urging anyone with information about these events to come forward.

    Switching gears, weather-wise, today starts cool and breezy with temperatures reaching the mid-50s by the afternoon. Expect a mix of sun and clouds, making it a pleasant day for outdoor plans. So, it’s a great opportunity to visit the farmers market or enjoy a walk along Schenley Park. A chilly evening follows, so pack layers if you're heading out tonight.

    For our local music lovers, the UPMC Events Center in Moon Township will host Spiritbox this evening at 6:30 PM. With special guests Loathe and Dying Wish, it promises to be an unforgettable night of intense live music. Tickets are still available if you’re interested.

    On the cultural front, the Pittsburgh Home & Garden Show continues this weekend at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center. It’s a perfect outing for families and DIY enthusiasts looking for home improvement ideas. Speaking of events, the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh is hosting a job fair on Monday, focusing on manufacturing and healthcare, two of the city’s strongest job sectors.

    In education, congratulations are in order for the students at Pittsburgh Allderdice High School. Their robotics team clinched first place in a regional competition this week, showcasing the talent and innovation blooming in our schools.

    Real estate is buzzing with activity, as median home prices in Pittsburgh have risen slightly to $245,000. While it’s still an accessible market compared to other cities, realtors note that homes in neighborhoods like Lawrenceville and Bloomfield are selling quickly, with New listings snapped up within days.

    From City Hall, Mayor Ed Gainey has announced expanded efforts to manage urban deer populations, now involving USDA sharpshooters. This comes after ongoing community concerns about rising accidents and property damage caused by deer in neighborhoods like Squirrel Hill and Point Breeze.

    Finally, a feel-good story to wrap up today – the Pittsburgh Zoo welcomed a baby giraffe this week, a healthy addition to the family after some heartbreaking stillbirths last month. The little one is already charming visitors with its long legs and curious expressions.

  • Workplace Incident, Weather Outlook, Marathon Crowds, and Sports Roundup - Pittsburgh Local Pulse
    2025/04/11
    Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for Friday, April 11, 2025.

    We begin with breaking news out of Lawrence County, where a construction worker was injured after falling through the roof of a banquet center earlier today. Thankfully, the worker is reported to be in stable condition, but the incident highlights ongoing concerns about workplace safety in the region. Meanwhile, in Pittsburgh’s Manchester neighborhood, police have resolved a recent SWAT situation, taking one man into custody without injuries reported.

    Turning to weather, we’re seeing scattered rain showers today, particularly east of Pittsburgh. Temperatures are staying cool, with highs just shy of 50 degrees. If you’re heading out, bundle up as it feels chillier with the wind. The rain should ease tomorrow, but temperatures will stay similar. By Sunday, we’re warming up toward 60 degrees, with a shot at hitting 70 on Monday—but keep an eye out for severe weather early next week, with strong winds and possible storms.

    In cultural news, big crowds are expected downtown this weekend for the Pittsburgh Marathon. Over 10,000 runners are gearing up to cross the finish line. If you’re in the area, be prepared for road closures and delays, but it’s a great chance to cheer on the athletes. On the sports front, the Penguins head to New Jersey tonight for their last road game of the season. Sidney Crosby is making history, just three assists away from tying Steve Yzerman for third-most assists with one franchise. Tristan Jarry’s second shutout in recent days has fans optimistic as the team pushes toward the playoffs.

    For baseball fans, the Pirates are back in action this weekend against the Cincinnati Reds. Left-hander Andrew Heaney is set to pitch tomorrow, looking to build on his impressive 1.50 ERA this season. The Pirates have won three of their last four games, and Heaney’s performance is a bright spot in the rotation.

    On the Riverhounds side, the team just signed Guillaume Vacter, a defender from France, to bolster their roster. The Hounds face the Charleston Battery tomorrow evening in what should be an exciting match for soccer fans.

    In community news, congratulations to Holden Schwamberger, the first junior-high adaptive track athlete in Western Pennsylvania. His achievements are a big step forward for inclusion in local sports. On the job front, new hires are underway at UPMC Children’s Hospital as they prepare to expand their pediatric services, creating dozens of new health care roles.

    Looking to real estate, Pittsburgh’s market remains competitive, with median home prices hovering around $250,000. A new condo project near the Strip District is drawing attention, offering upscale units with skyline views.

    Finally, a feel-good story: A lost dog that went missing in a car theft earlier this week has been reunited with its veteran owner, thanks to tips from locals. It’s a reminder of how our community comes together to help one another.
