Horrible news out of the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area this morning. A shooting has occurred at The Tree of Life Synagogue in Squirrel Hill and at least 4 people have already been killed and many others injured.
According to CBS Pittsburgh …
When officers arrived the gunman reportedly shot at them, forcing officers to use their vehicles as a shield.
Two police officers were reportedly shot.
The Synagogue was reportedly full of people for a Saturday service and police say they’ve received several calls from people barricaded inside the Synagogue.
President Trump just tweeted on the situation.
Watching the events unfolding in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Law enforcement on the scene. People in Squirrel Hill area should remain sheltered. Looks like multiple fatalities. Beware of active shooter. God Bless All!
