PITTSBURGH — Police arrested a man accused of opening fire on a woman and her three children at a home Thursday night in Uptown Pittsburgh, leading to a SWAT situation, police said.
Investigators said the standoff on Tustin Street was prompted by a domestic issue between a woman and her boyfriend, Taquan Gurley, who fired the shot. The woman ran out of the house with her three children.

He is facing several charges, including four counts of recklessly endangering another person, four counts of aggravated assault, discharging a firearm, and strangulation.
