Pittsburgh police are searching for a robbery suspect accused of firing a gun during an incident Tuesday in Lawrenceville.

Officers were called at about 11 p.m. to the 4000 block of Butler Street.

No one was injured, but a man told police he was robbed by a person who fired a shot at him while fleeing, public safety spokesman Maurice Matthews said.

It was not clear what the suspect stole. He was last seen getting into a black sedan.

The investigation continues.
