A man was shot in the foot Thursday afternoon in Arnold in a shooting in which more than a dozen rounds were fired.
The shooting was reported to 911 at 1:10 p.m., a Westmoreland County dispatcher said.
Shell casings were found in the 1500 block of Kenneth Avenue, just on Arnold’s side of North Street from New Kensington.
Arnold police Chief Eric Doutt said numerous shots were fired. At least 10 numbered evidence markers showed where casings were found on the road, sidewalk and in the grass.
On Friday, Doutt said police recovered a total of 13 shell casings.
The car that was hit by bullets was parked off the street on the New Kensington side of North Street.
Doutt said the victim was hit once in the foot, and the wound was not life-threatening. The victim was not cooperating with police, he said.
Police also were having difficulty finding cooperative witnesses, Doutt said.
Police did not have a suspect. A dark-colored Jeep and a Dodge Avenger were reportedly in the area at the time the shots were fired, but Doutt said police did not know if they were involved.
Doutt said police were hoping to find video of the shooting from residential surveillance cameras in the area.
