Pittsburgh homicide detectives are investigating a shooting in Homewood that left a man dead and a woman injured.

Police and medics responded to a ShotSpotter alert for 11 shots being fired in the 7700 block of Frankstown Avenue just before 1 a.m., Pittsburgh Public Safety spokesperson Cara Cruz said. The shooting occurred near the intersection of Frankstown and Brushton avenues, on the line between Homewood North and Homewood South, according to Tribune-Review news partner WPXI-TV.

Cruz said two gunshot victims were found. A man, identified as Glenn Tyrone Davenport III, 34, of Pittsburgh, was pronounced dead at the scene, and a female victim was taken to the hospital in stable condition with a gunshot wound to the chest, Cruz said.

Pittsburgh Public Safety told Channel 11 it is not clear where the shooting happened, but it does not appear to have occurred inside any nearby businesses.
