ARNOLD, Pa. — Three men were hospitalized after a shootout in Arnold on Wednesday.
According to information sent by the Westmoreland County District Attorney’s Office, an exchange of gunfire happened on Leishman Avenue at around 7 p.m.
Three men were involved, police say. All three of those men were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
No other injuries were reported.
Channel 11 spoke with a neighbor who said she had to hide on the floor with her son for over an hour.
“I had come to the door to lock both the front and the back doors, shut off the lights, and just asked him to stay on the ground,” Jasmine Cintron said.
This morning, Cintron said, her son asked her if their neighbors were OK after he fell asleep to police lights outside their door.
“It was lights everywhere, several ambulances flying up and down the road, cars going up and down the road. It was just a lot,” Cintron said.
The Arnold Police Chief spoke with Channel 11 off camera and said his department is unable to release further details as they work with county police on the investigation.
“You hear about it in town, and it’s not up in your face. It’s just kind of — it’s sad to say, but you get used to it,” Cintron said. “And then when it’s right at your doorstep, with your kid in the house, it gets nerve-racking.”
At this time, the incident is believed to be a domestic dispute. No charges have been filed at this time, and names have not been released.
“There’s always going to be violence somewhere, but at this point you just don’t want it close to home,” Cintron said.
