Two men were shot early Saturday morning in Pittsburgh’s Homewood South neighborhood, according to public safety officials.

A ShotSpotter alert in the 7200 block of Formosa Way alerted officers to nine shots being fired just before 4:30 a.m.

Officers from Pittsburgh’s Zone 5 located a crime scene there, but no victims were at the site when they arrived.

Shortly after, two male gunshot victims were taken to the hospital in private vehicle. One man was in critical condition, and the other in stable condition.

The Mobile Crime Unit processed the scene, as well as the vehicle that transported them to the hospital.

Violent Crime Unit detectives are investigating.
