Cops: Man Dies After Being Shot While Sitting In Booth At Restaurant

WILKINSBURG, Pa. (AP) -- Police say a man was shot as he sat in a booth at a Pennsylvania restaurant and later died at a hospital.

Officials in Allegheny County said the 31-year-old man, whose name hasn't been released, was at the Fireside Caribbean Restaurant and Catering in Wilkinsburg.

Authorities said another man shot him in the chest at about 3:40 p.m. Wednesday and then fled from the establishment through a back door.

Police are asking anyone in the area who may have seen the suspect to call county homicide investigators.
