PITTSBURGH — Pitt students have once again received an alert from police regarding alarming incidents on campus. This time, University of Pittsburgh police say they got several reports of an aggravated assault involving two people using an airsoft gun early Friday morning.
It happened just before 1 a.m. in the areas of the 120 block of Ruskin Avenue, Forbes Avenue and Meyran Avenue, and the 4700 block of Fifth Avenue. Police say the two people involved were wearing black ski masks and the passenger had a black and orange airsoft gun. They were in a red Toyota Solara with two doors and a sunroof, with Pennsylvania license plate LYX 3993.
No serious injuries were reported.
