(Pittsburgh, PA) A man received charges after he allegedly both shot a man in the Homewood neighborhood of Pittsburgh on Sunday and led police on a short foot chase that day before he was taken into custody. According to the criminal complaint, police said a man named Walter Ferguson shot a man in the left arm along Upland Street. According to a Pittsburgh Police spokesperson, officers responded to Upland Street between North Murtland Street and North Lang Avenue around 10 a.m. on Sunday for a ShotSpotter alert totaling 10 rounds. An unidentified man was found by police that was wounded by a gunshot and that same criminal complaint against Ferguson states the male victim is now in stable condition following his surgery and the victim suffered “significant blood loss.” Police confirm that the Hamilton Avenue and North Braddock Avenue intersection is where Ferguson hit another vehicle with his vehicle, which officers learned was a Mercedes SUV, after police unsuccessfully tried to initially pull Ferguson over. A range of charges from aggravated assault to escaping an officer are the charges that Ferguson has against him.
