Three wounded in shooting at Pittsburgh area shopping mall

By Daniel Kelley PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) – A gunman wounded three people at a Macy’s department store in a shopping center outside Pittsburgh on Saturday in what police said was a shooting that targeted one of the victims. “We believe that one of those three people shot was a targeted individual,” said Monroeville Police Chief Doug Cole of the incident at the Monroeville Mall outside Pittsburgh. Andy Sherman, head of the Allegheny County Detective Division, said surveillance videos could help identify the gunman. The victims were taken to Forbes Hospital in Monroeville, about 12 miles (20 km) east of Pittsburgh, where two were in critical condition and one was in fair condition, according to Dan Laurent, a hospital spokesman.
