“Whoa, I’m shocked. This has never happened to me before. Somebody could have been hurt, killed, you know? Too much violence and stuff like that,” said Shalayah Dorsey. He was working inside The Dollar Tree when shots were fired.
“Without self-control. It shows a lack of judgment, a lack of character just to be able to do that in broad daylight and not care about anybody’s life,” said Davonn Gajewski. He works at Dollar Tree but was off duty when it happened.
Allegheny County police are investigating. Anyone with information is asked to call 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
