PITTSBURGH — Multiple people were hurt in a rollover crash in Downtown Pittsburgh overnight.
The incident happened before 4 a.m. Sunday on the MLK Jr. East Busway, near the federal courthouse.
Allegheny County 911 dispatchers tell Channel 11 that at least six people were hurt. A Pittsburgh Public Safety official says two of the people hurt were transported in critical condition.
It appeared an SUV went through a fence, overturned and landed on its roof. There was a lot of debris from the crash scattered in the roadway, including a handgun.
The public safety official says the incident began with a traffic stop in Wilkinsburg and that alcohol is believed to be a factor.
The section of the East Busway was closed for around three hours while first responders were on scene.
A Pittsburgh Regional Transit spokesperson says no PRT employees or vehicles were involved.
