A 19-year-old man was killed Saturday evening and two others were hurt when gunfire broke out during a baby shower in Pittsburgh, according to police and the Allegheny County Medical Examiner.

City police said they were called to a location on Broadhead Fording Road in the Fairywood neighborhood at 6:15 p.m. where the shower was being held. There were six to seven shots reportedly fired. The address is associated with the Salvation Army Westside Worship & Service Center.

Police said three people had been shot:
