Edgewood, Pennsylvania

From the August 20, 2005 Pittsburgh Tribune-Review:

An Edgewood man was shot and critically wounded early Friday when he went outside his home to check on what set off the burglar alarm and was confronted by a gunman.

The intruder, who knows the victim, also was shot in the incident at 12:08 a.m. in the 500 block of Edgewood Avenue, Allegheny County Police Assistant Superintendent James Morton said.

...

Abram and Robinson have known each other for several years, according to an affidavit of probable cause filed to support the charges. The document does not give a reason for Robinson's being outside the home.

About 20 minutes after Abram was shot, county police were called to Mercy Hospital, where Robinson was taken by a friend.

Robinson told police he was shot by a passing motorist as he walked along Swissvale Avenue near his home.

However, a witness told police that Robinson was seen lying over a small hillside near Edgewood Towne Square, a short distance from where Abram was shot.

Blood was found on the sidewalk near Abram's home and a .38-caliber handgun was found at the base of a fence near the Edgewood Towne Square complex.

Court documents show that Robinson has a history of arrests for assault and robbery and drug and firearms violations.
