“It was like a volley of shots. That was undoubtedly gunshots, probably 10, 12 of them, but a whole volley. That was a bit alarming,” said neighbor Russ Brooks, who also added that Mount Washington is a safe, family-oriented neighborhood with few instances of violence.

Upon arrival, Pittsburgh police discovered a shattered front porch window. Police spokesperson Sonya Toler said three suspects entered the home — which had three people in it at the time — and a physical struggle ensued, resulting in one of the residents grabbing the gun from a suspect and opening fire, killing him.

As WTAE reports, the deceased suspect has been identified as 35-year-old Leonard Penn. The other two suspects immediately fled the scene and are wanted by police.
