CBS News campaign reporter Jake Rosen interviewed a witness who said he was an ER physician and had performed CPR on a victim with a head wound.
"I heard the shots. I thought it was firecrackers, to begin with," he said. "Somebody over there was screaming; he's been shot. He's been shot. So, I made my way over. I said I'm an emergency department physician. Let me help you. The guy spun around and was jammed between the benches. He had a headshot here. There's lots of blood, and he had brain matter there."
CBS Pittsburgh reports a medivac helicopter landed at Allegheny Allegheny General Hospital and an individual was quickly brought into the hospital. The person's identity and condition are not known. A small number of police were seen outside the hospital.
