Pittsburgh police are investigating a shooting that wounded a male victim Friday night in the city’s Westwood neighborhood.
The victim was taken to a local hospital in stable condition with gunshot wounds to his leg, according to a Public Safety spokesman.
The sound of shots in the 1600 block of Westchester Street was reported to 911 shortly after 8:30 p.m.
Based on a description of a car seen leaving the scene, police pulled over a dark-colored sedan a short time later at Brighton Road and Western Avenue in Manchester.
The driver notified officers about the victim, who was a passenger in the car. Officers applied tourniquets to the victim until medics arrived.
