A short time later, an officer was notified of a man who had been shot, sitting inside a vehicle along Enterprise Alley, Allegheny County police said.

The man, who police say was 32-years-old, was taken to the hospital, where he died.

The Medical Examiner's Office identified the victim as Maricco Randolph, of Duquesne. 

Neighbors say this is the kind of violence that makes them nervous to leave their homes.

"A little scared because I have to go in and out. I'm out every day of the week," neighbor David Johnson said. "I'm down here, all over the place, then you can get caught in the crossfire, somebody shoots you, bullet hits you."

Detectives from the county's Homicide Unit are investigating. Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to call Allegheny County Police.
