Judge OKs evidence of prior drive-by in cop’s homicide case

Judge OKs evidence of prior drive-by in cop’s homicide case
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Jurors in the case of a white western Pennsylvania police officer accused of shooting to death a black teenager last summer will hear evidence about a drive-by shooting that happened about 15 minutes before Antwon Rose II was killed.
A judge Monday allowed testimony at the trial of Michael Rosfeld regarding the drive-by shooting that involved the vehicle in which 17-year-old Rose was a passenger. The trial begins Tuesday.
Rosfeld’s lawyer has said Rose’s shooting was justified.
Allegheny County Judge Alexander Bicket isn’t letting jurors hear details about a robbery that Rosfeld’s lawyer says involved Rose before the drive-by incident and before his fatal shooting.
Bicket says his decision may be revisited.
Rose was shot three times, including in the back, as he ran from a vehicle Rosfeld had pulled over.

Kang and Gonzalez named starters as Bucs trim roster from 49 to 40.

The Pittsburgh Pirates ended two position battles on Monday, naming Erik González their starting shortstop and Jung Ho Kang their starting third baseman.

Kang beat out returning third baseman Colin Moran for the starting job, while Gonzalez claimed the Opening Day shortstop role over rookie Kevin Newman. Moran will get some work at first base the rest of the spring while continuing to play third, general manager Neal Huntington said. Newman still has a chance to make the team as a reserve middle infielder playing behind Gonzalez at shortstop and Adam Frazier at second.

The Pirates trimmed nine players, including infielder Kevin Kramer and third-base prospect Ke’Bryan Hayes, from their Spring Training roster on Monday.

Pittsburgh optioned Kramer to Triple-A Indianapolis, where he will move around the infield and potentially see some time in the outfield, and reassigned the following eight players to Minor League camp: Hayes, Will Craig, Nick Franklin, Geoff Hartlieb, Christian Kelley, Arden Pabst, Bryan Reynolds and Brandon Waddell.
