Gaffigan will perform at PPG Paints Arena on November 7. Tickets go on sale on Friday, April 24, at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster.

The eight-time GRAMMY-nominated comedian, writer, actor, and author was named a top-ten comedian by Forbes. 

November will be Gaffigan's first stop back in the Steel City since 2024, when he brought his Barely Alive Tour to PPG Paints Arena.  

Most recently, Gaffigan released his 10th comedy special, "Dark Pale," on Amazon Prime Video, which has been described as "his best yet" by the New York Times. 

Along with Pittsburgh, Gaffigan is making stops in Boston, Hershey, Toledo, and Notre Dame. 

To go with touring, acting, and writing, Gaffigan also does commentaries for CBS Sunday Morning. 

Finally, according to the tour announcement, "Gaffigan and his wife currently live in Manhattan with their five loud and expensive children." 

Pittsburgh Regional Transit says it's expanding its service from Thursday to Saturday, helping move people to, from and between the draft and its events. The footprint takes up Point State Park in Downtown Pittsburgh and part of the North Shore, with the two sites separated by a river.  

PRT says there will be extra frequency and capacity on some routes, and four limited-stop draft routes will run from the north, south, east and west. The light rail, colloquially called "the T" by Pittsburghers, will also increase service between Downtown and the North Shore during peak hours. 

If you plan on taking public transit, the map below breaks it down. Here's what else you need to know about getting around for the NFL draft in Pittsburgh. 

Light rail service for NFL draft

PRT says the Red and Blue lines will run from the South Hills Village to the North Side Station every 15 minutes from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. The Silver Line will run from Library to Washington Junction, where riders can transfer to the Red or Blue lines. 

Those going to the North Shore should get off at the North Side Station because Allegheny Station will be closed from Wednesday to Saturday. Those going Downtown can get off at several different stops, though Gateway will get fans the closest to Point State Park. 

People using the light rail are encouraged to use the park-and-ride lots. All of them will be open, and most will be free, PRT says. A full list of locations can be found online. 

Bus routes for NFL draft 

In addition to PRT's usual bus routes, there will be four "Football Flyers" routes, which will run about every 15 minutes on Thursday and Friday, then every 30 minutes on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. each day: 

• 99N – Starts at the McCandless Park and Ride (9700 McKnight Road), travels to the Ross Park and Ride (5204 Perry Highway) and uses the HOV lanes on I-279
• 99E – Start at the Monroeville Mall and serves every station along the East Busway
• 99S – Starts at the Large Park and Ride (219 Peters Creek Road) and serves every station along the South Busway.
• 99W – Start at the University Boulevard Park and Ride (9000 University Boulevard), serve every stop on the West Busway, the Lower Station of the Duquesne Incline, and the Lower Station of the Monongahela Incline

The Football Flyers will serve bus stops near Point State Park in Downtown and a bus stop near PNC Park on the North Shore. 

PRT says, unless otherwise noted, all buses will travel their normal routes. A full list can be found on PRT's website.

How much does it cost to ride public transit in Pittsburgh? 

From Thursday to Saturday, fares will be free on the light rail system and Monongahela Incline. 

Otherwise, fares will remain the same, though a special "Draft Pass" can be bought in the Ready2Ride app, offering unlimited rides for seven days for $25.

How to get between Downtown and the North Shore

Downtown Pittsburgh and the North Shore are separated by a river, but PRT says fans can either walk, take the light rail or ride a boat to get between the two spots. 

People can walk on the Roberto Clemente Bridge, which will be closed to cars during the event. The walk from Point State Park to Acrisure Stadium is about 30 minutes. 

The T will also run between the two. Fans can get on at a Downtown location, whether it's First Avenue, Steel Plaza, Wood Street or Gateway, and get off at the North Side stop. Gateway is the stop closest to Point State Park. 

The Gateway Clipper Fleet will also ferry fans between Point State Park and the North Shore. 

The draft will be held over three days from Thursday to Saturday, with the footprint split between Point State Park and the North Shore. 

Do you need a ticket for the NFL draft? 

The NFL draft is free to attend. However, fans have to register through the NFL OnePass app or by going to NFL.com/DraftAccess. 

No ticket is required. After registering, fans will receive a QR code in the OnePass app that will grant them entry. 

Where is the NFL draft? 

The free fan festival, called the NFL Draft Experience, will take place at Point State Park in Downtown Pittsburgh.

The Draft Theater and Main Stage will be across the river on the North Shore outside of Acrisure Stadium. Fans will have a standing room only view of the theater, and seating is only for invited guests. 

How to get to the NFL draft 

Officials are urging people to leave their cars at home and take public transportation. The light rail, colloquially called the "T," can take fans between Downtown and the North Shore, and there will be special bus routes to bring fans into the city. 

If you're driving, there will be road closures, so plan ahead. As for parking, Visit Pittsburgh recommends finding a garage Downtown or in Station Square and then using the light rail or Gateway Clipper to reach the North Shore. 

What is there to do at the NFL draft?

The NFL Draft Experience on the North Shore is billed as a festival for fans of all ages, with games, exhibits, autograph sessions and concessions. There will also be live music from performers like Steve Aoki, Wiz Khalifa, Bret Michaels, Kane Brown and 2 Chainz. 

The FBI's Pittsburgh field office said late Tuesday that it is working with local, state, and federal partners to ensure that the draft experience is both safe and enjoyable.

"Our mission will be carried out in command posts, on the streets, in the skies and on our rivers," the FBI said.

Ahead of the draft, the FBI said that a temporary flight restriction, or TFR, will be in place for two nautical miles within draft-related events.

According to the Federal Aviation Administration's TFR website, the drone restrictions will be in place starting at 11 a.m. on Thursday and will remain through the entirety of the draft.

The FBI said that anyone found operating a drone near NFL draft-related events will face severe criminal and civil penalties.

During a joint press briefing on Tuesday alongside NFL officials and state and local law enforcement partners, the FBI said that there are no known or credible threats surrounding the draft. 

Officials said they remain vigilant, given that large gatherings like the draft, which is expected to bring 500,000 to 700,000 people to Pittsburgh, can pose as a potential target. 

An operations center positioned near the NFL draft footprint will have representation from all law enforcement partners and officials said it will allow for quick and efficient communication across all agencies.

"Over the course of the next three days, we have a unified command system operating up in our NFL control," said Cathy Lanier, Chief Security Officer for the NFL. "Leads from all of those agencies will be seated together and as decisions are needed to be made, the lead agency will obviously take the lead role, but all the other agencies up there will support."

Ahead of the three-day NFL draft event, the FBI said that if anyone sees something suspicious, they can report it to law enforcement by calling 911. 

The shutdowns began last month on Art Rooney Avenue, West General Robinson Street and Scottland Avenue on the North Shore, and continued in the days leading up to the draft. The most impactful and expansive closures went into effect on Wednesday. They include roads around the North Shore and Point State Park, where the Main Stage and Draft Experience are, respectively. 

A map of the NFL draft road closures for Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday can be found below. 

There are six phases of road closures, the first of which began on March 28 and the last is scheduled to end on May 10. Pittsburgh officials said all major closures have detour signs. However, the CEO of Pittsburgh Regional Transit encouraged people not to drive during draft week and instead to rely on public transportation.

Flyers vs. Penguins, by the numbers

Tonight marks exactly eight years to the date since the Philadelphia Flyers hosted a playoff game at Xfinity Mobile Arena, then the Wells Fargo Center. It was also against the Penguins, an 8-5 win for Pittsburgh despite Sean Couturier's five-point game on a torn MCL.

This is the eighth time the Flyers and Penguins have faced off in the NHL playoffs. The Flyers are 4-3 all-time against the Penguins in the postseason but 1-3 in their last four postseason series vs. Pittsburgh.

Before tonight's Game 3, here are some numbers to know.

• The away team has won seven straight postseason games between the two clubs.
• In Stanley Cup Playoffs history, teams that take a 2-0 lead in a best-of-seven series have won 86% of the time.
• The Flyers are 18-0 in franchise history when they have a 2-0  lead; the 2-0 series lead is the Flyers' first since 2012, also against Pittsburgh.
• This is the third time the Flyers have taken a 2-0 series lead over the Pens in their eight postseason series. They took a 2-0 lead over the Pens in the conference quarterfinals in 1997 and 2012. They won both series 4-1 and 4-2, respectively.
• The Penguins are 5-8 all-time when they're down 0-2 in a best-of-seven series and 1-2 in such series when they've had home-ice advantage.

Porter Martone, by the numbers

As former Flyers goalie Brian Boucher said on the TV broadcast after Game 2, "stars are born in the playoffs." One of the breakout players thus far is 19-year-old Porter Martone, who made history in the Flyers' Game 2 win. Just a month ago, Martone was playing college hockey at Michigan State.

• Martone became the 12th teenager in NHL history to score a goal in each of his first two playoff games and the first Flyer to do so.
• He joins Danius Zubrus and Couturier as the only teens in Flyers history with multiple goals in a single NHL postseason.
• He and Zubrus are the only teens to score in consecutive playoff games in franchise history.
• He became the first teen in NHL history to score his team's game-winning goal in his first two career playoff games.
• Only one other teen in NHL history has scored consecutive GWGs in back-to-back games — Joe Thornton in 1999.
• Martone joins Brett Hull in 1988 and Cooney Weiland in 1929 as the only players in NHL history to score game-winning goals in back-to-back games to start a playoff series.

What's the rest of the Flyers vs. Penguins playoff schedule?

The full playoff schedule between the Flyers and Penguins can be found below. 

• Game 4 - Saturday, April 25 - Penguins at Flyers - 8 p.m.
• Game 5, if necessary - Monday, April 27 - Flyers at Penguins, time to be determined

• Game 7, if necessary - Saturday, May 2 - Flyers at Penguins, time to be determined

The Pittsburgh Business Times reported Tuesday, citing sources, that Roadside Development has purchased the Galleria mall and is working to bring Wegmans to the South Hills.

The mall property's reported sale has not been officially listed on Allegheny County property records.

According to the report in the Business Times, Roadside is said to be working with the New York-based grocer to bring a second location to the Pittsburgh region. 

Development is underway in Cranberry Township for the area's first Wegmans location, which is expected to open sometime in 2027.

A spokesperson for Wegmans declined to confirm its plans for a South Hills location to the Business Times, only saying that the company "is continuing to scout for more sites in the region."

If Wegmans were to open at the Galleria in Mt. Lebanon, the grocery market in the South Hills would become even more competitive than it already is with Market District, Fresh Market, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Target all operating stores in the immediate area. 

Jaylone Hines, 25, of Pittsburgh, was sentenced to as long as 25 years in prison Tuesday for his involvement in a shooting near a bus stop along Cedar Avenue on the city's North Side that resulted in the death of three individuals, including two people who were caught in crossfire.

John Hornezes, Jacquelyn Mehalic, and Betty Averytt all died after the gunfire rang out at the North Side bus stop over three years ago.

"It is a heartbreaking, devastating circumstance when anyone loses their life to acts of gun violence," said Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala. "Our deepest condolences go out to the families who have had to deal with the unexpected loss of their loved ones."

Hines was one of three individuals arrested in connection with the deadly shooting and was convicted earlier this year on guns charges while acquitted on homicide charges. 

Hines received a sentence of 3 and 1/2 to 7 years for carrying a firearm without a license and 8 and 1/2 to 18 years for being a person not to possess a firearm. 

Investigators at the time of the arrests said that the gunfire was part of a shootout between two rival groups.

During the funeral service for Hornezes, who was killed in the bus stop shooting, more gunfire erupted outside the Destiny of Faith Church in the city's Brighton Heights neighborhood.

Five people were wounded in the shooting outside of the church and police at the time said they believed they had a turf battle raging between rival groups. 

Cruz singled leading off the game against Rocker (1-1). He stole second and took an extra base on Danny Jansen's throwing error. Ryan O'Hearn singled for a 1-0 lead two batters into the game.

Joc Pederson singled leading off the second against Carmen Mlodzinski (1-1) and Josh Jung doubled him to third. Carter singled to tie it and Josh Smith hit a sacrifice fly to put the Rangers up 2-1.

Carter then robbed Cruz of a three-run homer in the fifth to keep it 2-1.

Eqequiel Duran, who came in after left fielder Wyatt Langford left with forearm stiffness, had an RBI double in the Rangers' fifth and Corey Seager ended Mlodzinski's night with an RBI single for a 4-1 lead. Wilber Dotel entered and gave up a single to Jake Burger before walking Pederson. Jung drove in Seager on a forceout for the final run.

Rocker threw 88 pitches and allowed four hits and a walk, striking out five. Cole Winn, Jacob Latz and Jakob Junis each pitched a scoreless inning to close it out.

Mlodzinski threw 93 pitches and surrendered all five runs on six hits and two walks. He fanned six.

The Rangers (12-11) moved a game over .500 at the start of a nine-game homestand after playing 16 of their first 22 games on the road.

Pittsburgh dropped to 5-5 on the road and 13-10 for the season.

Langford was the Rangers' hottest hitter before his injury, going 7 for 14 as Texas dropped two of three in Seattle before coming home. He walked and stole his third base in the first inning and left after striking out in the third.

Pirates RHP Braxton Ashcraft (1-1, 2.38) starts Wednesday opposite Rangers RHP Jack Leiter (1-1, 4.87).

OpenTable recently released its "2026's Top 100 Brunch Restaurants" ranking, and Forno Kitchen and Bar in Columbus, Lindey's in Columbus, Pier W in Cleveland and Butcher and Rose in Columbus were included in the top 100. 

Forno Kitchen and Bar  

The eatery in the Short North Arts District has a brunch menu with several sharables, cocktails, salads, sandwiches, and favorites like chicken and waffles, breakfast pizza, and Nutella-stuffed French toast.

Forno Kitchen and Bar has a 4.8-star rating on OpenTable with more than 3,000 reviews. Brunch runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. 

Lindey's   

Sue Doody opened the restaurant in German Village in 1981, and it has a diverse brunch menu for guests, including crab and egg, avocado toast, breakfast nachos and more. 

Lindey's has a 4.8-star rating on OpenTable with more than 9,000 reviews. The brunch menu is available Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Pier W   

Pier W, which made the list in 2025, sits on a cliff overlooking Lake Erie and offers guests awe-inspiring views. Its brunch menu features classics like French toast and scrambled eggs, but offers unique items like roasted diver scallops and sesame-seared tuna.

The restaurant has a 4.8-star rating on OpenTable with nearly 500 reviews.

Butcher and Rose

The restaurant in Downtown Columbus says it provides an "unparalleled steakhouse experience." It is currently gearing up for its Mother's Day brunch, which will feature king crab Benedict, cinnamon rolls and more. 

Butcher and Rose has a 4.8-star rating on OpenTable with nearly 2,000 reviews.

OpenTable explains methodology

OpenTable said it found 2026's top brunch spots after reviewing 10 million reviews from verified diners and "dining metrics" from March 1, 2025, to Feb. 28, 2026. The metrics included diner ratings and the percentage of reservations made in advance. Those metrics were then weighted to generate an overall score. 

Poison lead singer and Butler native Bret Michaels and national anthem singer and Gibsonia native KELS met with members of the media on Tuesday to preview what fans will get to experience this week during the NFL Draft Entertainment Series.

The concert series will be taking place on Thursday, Friday and Saturday before the picks start happening on the NFL Main Stage. And while you will need a ticket, the concerts will be free to the public.

"Bret, you once sang every rose has its thorn," KDKA's Chris DeRose asked. "If Pittsburgh is the rose, are there any thorns you are seeing right now?"

"Let me tell you, NFL draft in Pittsburgh 2026, not a single thorn here," Michaels said. "This is awesome and I mean this for real, as you can tell by the way I have been beaming to do this."  

Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa will also be performing this week, and Michaels said to be on the lookout for a mash-up between them. 

"I live and breathe for music and sports," Michaels said. "I grew up here and as a diabetic, it has saved my life, the sports, the music, we talked about it. It is great to be home."

KELS said she started her music career in Pittsburgh, so singing the national anthem at the NFL draft in her hometown is "icing on the cake." 

"My family is obviously elated that I am doing this but I'm sure they will all be in the crowd," KELS said. 

Students and administrators received pop-up error messages on their screens on Tuesday morning. North Hills Assistant Superintendent Beth Williams said the district noticed the issues about 10 to 15 minutes into testing.

"I don't know that anyone really had a full picture as to what was going on," Williams said. "Probably 60 to 70% of our students either had been logged in and kicked off or hadn't been able to get logged in at all."

She said what followed was about 45 minutes of chaos. Schools have been preparing for this for months, as this year is the first that all districts were mandated to administer the tests online.

"It was very frustrating to reach the point today where we're telling our kids, show what you know, like you're prepared, we're ready to go, and then unfortunately, we were unable to do that, and it was out of our control," Williams said.

Eventually, the North Hills School District received word from the Pennsylvania Department of Education that the program run by Data Recognition Corporation was fixed. The district then continued testing. 

Spokespeople from other districts in the region, including Pittsburgh Public Schools and the Seneca Valley School District, said they also continued with their scheduled exams, while other districts said they postponed testing until Wednesday.

In a statement to KDKA, the Pennsylvania Department of Education said there was a "technical issue with the testing platform" run by Data Recognition Corporation. The statement went on to say the issue was resolved in about 40 minutes. 

"If standardized assessments are disrupted for any reason, PDE works closely with affected schools to ensure that students have ample opportunity to complete their assessments," the statement said.

KDKA reached out to the Data Recognition Corporation for more details on what happened, but the company said to contact the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

Some districts started testing on Monday, while others started on Tuesday. Williams believes it was an overload of the system due to everyone being online. She said once some districts dropped off, their connectivity picked up.

While the 57th pick is on the clock Friday night, fans can score $25 off orders from Heinz-verified restaurants, like Primanti Bros., on Uber Eats. For more information and a full list of select restaurants, fans can head to Heinz's website.

Pittsburgh Action Against Rape, a nonprofit that helps victims of sexual assault, is reminding people to look out for one another and speak up when something isn't right. 

Gail Brown, the manager of education and prevention services with PAAR, says trafficking doesn't always look like what movies depict. It can start with what seems to be just an invitation to a party. She says red flags to look out for are promises of free drinks, meeting famous people or the urgency of a cool opportunity that's about to be missed.

She says traffickers often look to separate their targets, so it's crucial to look out for one another. 

"Making sure that that group of folks, whoever you came with, you're leaving with, right?" Brown said. "We're not letting somebody go off saying, 'Oh, I met this person,' or 'This activity over here looks fun.' No, we came together, we're leaving together."  

And watch out for strangers, too, Brown added. 

"If you are in a space and you see somebody by themselves that looks a little confused, maybe they look a little intoxicated and they're alone, maybe asking them, 'Are you OK? Where are your friends?'" Brown said. "Connecting them with some staff that are around, because they may not trust you, but saying, 'Hey, let's see if we can connect you with security.'"

The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police said 11 of its officers, detectives and sergeants have completed specialized training to combat human trafficking. Police said trainees learned how to use an investigative tool to analyze online data, identify trafficking patterns and find victims. 

PAAR has a 24/7 hotline you can call for help or advice at 1-866-END-RAPE. To get help from the National Human Trafficking Hotline, call 1-888-373-7888 or text HELP or INFO to BeFree at 233733.

Police said officers responded to the 7200 block of Torresdale Avenue around 9:45 a.m. for a robbery in progress.

Police sources said a car pulled up in a parking lot, two armed masked suspects jumped out and robbed a Brinks truck that was making a stop at a check-cashing business.

Surveillance photos from a nearby camera show two men dressed in black, wearing masks, running out of a blue car. The person in the front appears to be pointing an assault rifle.

A police spokesperson said the suspects got away with an undisclosed amount of U.S. currency. A police source said the amount of money taken could be up to $1.8 million.

What started as a typical morning for Karina Torres at her Dunkin' job quickly turned to panic. The Brink truck robbery happened across the street.

"It is crazy just to see how it happened within seconds, within seconds," Torres said. "It's sad. When the cops came, that's when they said, 'We need to see the cameras.'"

Images from Chopper 3 showed Torresdale Avenue blocked off just south of Cottman Avenue. Several police vehicles were on the scene and the armored truck was in the area behind yellow caution tape.

No injuries were reported in the robbery.

Later Tuesday morning, police located an Acura that investigators believe was used in the robbery, according to police sources. The vehicle was found under I-95 in the area of Front Street and Fairmount Avenue.

A Brinks spokesperson declined to comment on the incident when contacted by CBS News Philadelphia, "in the interest of the safety of our employees and others who may be affected on matters concerning law enforcement."

Anyone with information is asked to call police or submit a tip online. Police are still searching for the suspects.

Multiple Brinks trucks were robbed in the area last year. In August, three men were arrested for holding up a driver near the Home Depot in Port Richmond.

In October, two men were indicted on charges that they robbed Brinks trucks in Elkins Park, Montgomery County, and on Castor Avenue in Northeast Philly.

According to police, officers who responded to the area determined that a dog had gotten loose from a nearby home and attacked the child and the small dog.

Liam Swartzwelder and his 7-month-old puppy Simba were out for a walk when he says the neighbor's Doberman got loose and came after them. The attack unfolded in seconds.

"I tried to get our puppy into the playground and close the gate, but he jumped onto my back and pushed me down before I was able to," said Swartzwelder. 

Liam was hurt trying to intervene and was taken to UPMC Children's Hospital and treated for minor injuries. The puppy, just adopted a day earlier, didn't survive.

Liam's mother was on the porch of their home, directly across from the park, when the incident unfolded. She said she knew immediately something was wrong.

"It was pure terror hearing my son scream, hearing the dogs go nuts. You knew what was happening right when you heard the screaming," Liam's mother, Leanne Swartzwelder, said.

Police say the dog had a history of aggression, yet it was still in the community. A neighbor told KDKA-TV that her 12-year-old daughter was attacked similarly last year.

No charges were filed after that attack, and the dog was not removed.

An update from police said that after consulting with the Pennsylvania Dog Wardens, criminal charges have been filed against the owner of the dog that got loose from the home.

"We chose to charge the dog's owner with dog-related offenses for not being able to keep his dog contained, per state law," said Chief Thomas Dessell with the Verona Police Department.

The dog is set to be euthanized on Wednesday.  Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Verona Police Department. 

Austin Roberston of Harrisburg was shot and killed by a deputy from the Anderson County Sheriff's Office during a traffic stop on Interstate 85 near mile marker 11, the Anderson County Office of the Coroner said in a Facebook post. 

In a news release, the sheriff's office said deputies pulled over a Dodge Challenger for a moving traffic violation and then called for backup. While being interviewed, authorities said, the suspect ran to the back of his car and grabbed a gun. Officials said Roberston fired at least one shot, hitting one of the deputies. The other deputy returned fire at Roberston, who was fatally shot, the sheriff's office said. He was pronounced dead at the scene. 

The wounded deputy suffered "life-threatening injuries," officials said on Monday. In an update on Tuesday, the sheriff's office said the deputy was last listed in stable condition and in "good spirits." His name was not released. 

"The deputy struck is in good spirits as his family and teammates surround him at the hospital," the sheriff's office said

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division has taken over the investigation into the police shooting. 

"Sheriff [Chad] McBride and the Anderson County Sheriff's Office are extremely thankful for all of the thoughts, well wishes and prayers for this deputy," the sheriff's office posted. 

Part of the agency's so-called "Bus Line Refresh," transit officials would like to eliminate two lines in Shaler.

Residents say that while PRT thinks this is an economical option for the agency, it could have a dramatic effect on economic viability for commuters.

They seem to be just two of the thousands of Pittsburgh Regional Transit routes, but for many, the Route 2 Mt. Royal and the P13 Mt. Royal Flyer along Mount Royal Boulevard are critical.

"It's the most important bus line, quite honestly," rider Autumn Krohe said. "I can't get to work, I can't get my medications. I live in Shaler, and the only way to go to and from is the bus line."

Some of PRT's goals focus on improving reliability and service frequency. PRT says the reason for potential elimination is simple: low ridership.

"We sent a letter to the PRT board. We said, please, do not do this. We need this service for the community," said Shaler Township Commissioner Josh Fleitman. "We're all urging PRT to think creatively here. What could it look like to keep this line open?"

Smaller buses, adjusted schedules, and routes might work, according to proponents. For them, something is better than nothing.

"Historically, this route has played a critical role in connecting Shaler Township to the region," Fleitman said.

Proponents of keeping the routes say they're putting the pressure on to keep the buses rolling to and from this part of Shaler.

A PRT spokesperson reiterated that no cuts have been finalized. The agency is planning public hearings where riders can voice opposition to particular route cuts.

Once finalized, the Bus Line Refresh plan could see implementation in 2027.

The case involves a 2019 class-action lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by shopper Brian Keim, who alleged that receipts from Trader Joe's stores displayed the first six and last four digits of his credit card, increasing the risk of identity theft. 

The original complaint was filed in Florida after Keim shopped at a Trader Joe's in Palm Beach Gardens. The case was later transferred to the Central District of California since the retailer is headquartered in Monrovia, Los Angeles County.

The federal Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) includes a provision prohibiting businesses from printing more than the last five digits of a customer's credit or debit card number on any electronically printed receipt. The 2003 law also allows consumers to recover damages from businesses that fail to comply.

What is the Trader Joe's settlement?

Trader Joe's said it was unaware of any identity theft resulting from the receipts and did not admit any wrongdoing, noting that it chose to settle the lawsuit to avoid further litigation. In February, the company and the plaintiff reached a tentative $7.4 million settlement, which remains subject to final court approval. 

A fairness hearing is scheduled for August, at which a judge will make a final determination on whether to approve the agreement.

Along with offering payments to the plaintiff and for attorneys' fees, the $7.4 million settlement fund will cover payments to people who shopped at Trader Joe's stores between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, who submit valid claim forms. The company has stores in 42 states and Washington, D.C., most of them in California.

How much will eligible customers get under the settlement?

According to the settlement website tj-factasettlement.com, the share of the settlement fund depends on the number of valid claim forms submitted, but the final payment amount is estimated at $102.45 per claim.

Who is eligible to receive a Trader Joe's settlement payout?

Persons who shopped at Trader Joe's between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, and who submit valid claim forms before the due date are eligible. 

According to the settlement website, "Not all Trader Joe's stores printed receipts displaying the first six and last four digits of the card number, and in those stores that did, only a small minority of transactions involved such receipts."

How do you file a claim for a Trader Joe's settlement payout?

The eaglet, called USS 11 because it's the 11th eaglet born in the nest at U.S. Steel's Irvin Plant in West Mifflin, is recovering at the conservation center in Morgantown. In an update posted to Facebook, the nonprofit said USS 11 was "bright and alert" on Tuesday morning and is showing a healthy appetite, with trout as its favorite food. 

The eaglet is gaining weight and has been moved to a spot where it can see and hear an adult bald eagle. The conservation center says if all continues to go well, the eaglet can be returned to its nest in the next week or so. 

The Tamarack Wildlife Center, which helped coordinate USS 11's rescue, said it's a "relatively safe time" to return the eaglet because it and its siblings are young. The eaglet's return will be coordinated so there will be minimal disruption, and it's expected that the parents, Stella and Irvin, will accept the young bird.

The bird was removed from its nest with permission from the landowner as well as federal and state authorities after viewers of the livestream camera noticed USS 11 had ingested a fishhook on Saturday. 

A team of arborists removed the eaglet, and less than 12 hours later, the eaglet received treatment at the Avian Conservation Center of Appalachia. The veterinarian wasn't able to remove the hook via endoscopy, so the eaglet underwent surgery, and the hook, along with the synthetic bait and fishing line that were still attached, was removed. 

"Thank you so much to everyone involved in the rescue of the eaglet, and to the nest cam viewers who spotted the problem," the Avian Conservation Center of Appalachia said. "This eagle would not have survived with the hook and so much fishing line in its digestive tract." 

The conservation center says it's a good reminder for fishers to clean up their lines and hooks. 

It's a kickoff for draft week, and over 50 volunteers, including Stacy Marinos, showed up in Pittsburgh's West End with trash bags in hand for the first community event of the NFL draft.

"You always leave things better than when you found them. So it's a win-win," Marinos said.

That win-win is part of an initiative Allegheny Cleanways started in September, months before the NFL draft began. 

"It's great to be doing it now, to put a face on the community, maybe for out-of-town visitors so that they can see that we care about our community, we want to make it look great, we're proud of our community," Marinos said.

City pride and appreciation fill the air with these volunteers from the community, which include Friends of the Riverfront, Allegheny Cleanways, and members of the Steelers.

"I feel grateful for the opportunity to shine a spotlight on the work that Cleanways has been doing for 25 years," Allegheny Cleanways executive director Caily Grube said.

"Super grateful to Allegheny Cleanways. They launched the campaign for Immaculate Collection months before the draft to really make sure our city was ready to welcome so many visitors," Pittsburgh Steelers senior director of community relations Blayre Holmes Davis said.

Now that work is culminating in over 400 tons of trash collected off 50 highway miles for draft-related litter maintenance. It's teamwork worth applauding, with 60 more trees planted in Esplen.

"It's always a good day to plant a tree," Friends of the Riverfront executive director Kelsey Ripper said.

From trees in the ground to bags filled with trash, it's making Pittsburgh beautiful to show locals and visitors that Pittsburgh is loved and worthy of the national spotlight.

"We're excited to 'redd up' Pittsburgh to make it look beautiful to let people know that we care about our city and that they should come and enjoy the beauty that it has to offer," Ripper said.

Clean-up efforts with the Immaculate Collection will continue for two years after the NFL draft leaves Pittsburgh.

Last spring, video showed the fan and the employee fighting during a game at PNC Park. That fan has now sued the Pirates and the employee.

The lawsuit, filed in Allegheny County on behalf of Patrick Egan, alleges that during the fight, Egan suffered a concussion and facial injuries, including a chipped tooth, a bloody lip and more.

The incident began when Egan and his friend were accused of harassing a woman who worked at a concession stand. The game day employee, identified in the lawsuit as Raymond Stroud III, intervened in the situation. 

In the lawsuit, Egan states that he was not involved in the altercation with the woman and that he did not harass her. 

Bystanders and other employees tried to break up the fight, but within moments, Egan was seen spitting on Stroud. He then took off his belt and started hitting Egan.

Following the fight, the Pirates said Stroud's behavior was "entirely unacceptable," and he was immediately suspended. No charges were filed in the wake of the fight, police said last year.

Egan is seeking damages for assault, battery, negligence, and invasion of privacy. 

The suit also alleges that the Pirates failed to release security surveillance video of the incident that would have shown that Egan did not harass the concession worker. 

The Pirates told CBS News Pittsburgh it doesn't comment on pending litigation. 

The draft gets underway on Thursday night, with fans from all over coming to Pittsburgh to watch their favorite team make picks over the three-day event. Here's what fans need to know before coming to Pittsburgh.

Where is the draft stage?

The Draft Theater and Main Stage are on the North Shore, outside of Acrisure Stadium. Other events and activities on the North Shore include the Play 60 Zone, a watch party at Acrisure Stadium, a flag football field, a beer hall, the NFL museum and other photo opportunities, like the NFL Draft Photo Frames.

The Draft Theater is only available to invited ticket holders, the NFL says. However, fans will have a chance to be selected for standing room seating, depending on availability, as the draft goes on, the league added. 

North Shore concessions

Concessions on the North Shore are Crazy Horse Coffee, Fry Bar, Mobile Chef International Foods, Steel City Hot Dogs and Tennessee Crushed Water Ice.

Any Alert Days Ahead?  Due in part to the NFL Draft going on, I am going to place a potential First Alert Weather Day on Friday with around an inch of rain but also some rumbles expected for the afternoon to the evening.

Aware: Freeze warning goes through 9 a.m.

Highs today will hit the mid-60s. It was a chilly morning with morning lows falling all the way down to the 20s in most places. Noon temperatures will be in the mid to low 50s. This afternoon will be breezy with winds gusting up to 25 mph.The further into the day you go, the more clouds you will see.

Overnight, we will see a weak line of showers rolling through that will impact the area after midnight and should be out of the area by the time the morning rush really gets going. Rain totals are expected to be less than 0.05". 

What's the weather for the NFL draft going to be like?

Looking at the draft, rain chances are low for Thursday.  Everyone will see rain on Friday with three quarters of an inch to a full inch of rain falling during the afternoon to evening. Severe weather is not expected on Friday. 

Light rain and drizzle will stick around on Saturday.  

When it comes to temperatures, highs should hit the 70s on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  

I have us seeing 60s for highs on Sunday and Monday.

Pittsburgh Public Safety said that officers from Zone 2 were called to the intersection of Butler Street and Stanton Avenue around 12:45 a.m. for reports of a shot fired with a man lying in the road.

When officers arrived at the scene, they found the man had been shot in the stomach, according to Public Safety, who said officers helped the man until medics arrived in the area.

Public Safety said the man was taken to the hospital in critical condition and was taken into surgery immediately. 

KDKA's news crew at the scene observed officers putting down evidence markers throughout the intersection that had been marked off with crime tape. 

No arrests have been made, according to Public Safety, who said the scene was processed by the Mobile Crime Unit.

The overnight shooting investigation is being handled by detectives from the Violent Crime Unit.

The lawsuit, which is hundreds of pages, names the municipality of Penn Hills, its council, Mayor Pauline Calabrese and the Penn Hills Police Department Advisory Board.

Police Chief Jason Bonace is not named as a defendant, but the complaint argues civil service rules were violated to promote him from K-9 officer to police chief. 

According to the lawsuit, the civil service rules state that a person must have spent five years as a supervisor and achieved the rank of lieutenant. The suit claims the council retroactively changed the rules to accommodate Bonace's promotion and goes on to say Bonace's actions created a hostile work environment.  

The plaintiffs also allege the council agreed to implement an act allowing officers to reach 25 years of service sooner and retire with full benefits in exchange for the police advisory board agreeing to a 12-hour shift trial period of one year. The lawsuit claims everyone signed the agreement, but the act was never implemented.

The chief did not attend the council meeting on Monday, but Mayor Calabrese was there.

"I'm not surprised, but this is business as usual," Calabrese said. "I will just say we don't comment specifically on personnel matters. But I have confidence that our solicitor will respond, and there are two sides to every story."

The plaintiff's attorney, Kimberly Gompers, said she could not comment because of the ongoing litigation and the plaintiffs are all current employees. The defendants have 20 days to respond.

Hadid has re-listed her beloved 32-acre farm in New Hope for $10.88 million, according to Realtor.com. The property was reportedly re-listed after the previous deal fell through. 

The 61-year-old — the mother of models Gigi and Bella Hadid and musician Anwar Hadid — shared the news in a post on Instagram on Monday.

"When the Farm fell out of escrow last year i chose to see it as a gift… more sunsets, more time, more moments, more meaning," the post said. "To keep the magic alive, I just planted over 3,000 new lavender plants as an act of faith and promise to the land to keep the traditions moving forward."

The lavender plants are an important aspect of the property, which features the main house — a 19th-century stone home — plus two cottages, a corn crib, a barn and the fields of lavender. Yolanda Hadid previously said the family planted the lavender during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Yolanda Hadid, according to the Wall Street Journal, purchased the property for nearly $4 million in 2017 and performed extensive renovations on it.   

"This kind of magic, you don't own you simply get to be a part of its story," she said in the Instagram post. 

The former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star told the Wall Street Journal in 2025 that she purchased another home in Bucks County. She also reportedly has homes in Texas and New York.  

New Hope is home to several celebrities, as it is about 50 minutes outside of Philadelphia and a 90-minute drive to New York City. In 2023, Philadelphia native Bradley Cooper, who is Gigi Hadid's boyfriend, purchased a home in the town in 2023, according to Realtor.com.

Former One Direction singer Zayn Malik, Gigi Hadid's former boyfriend, also owns property in New Hope.

UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital held a pep rally celebrating Pittsburgh football on Monday, dressing babies up in Steelers gear and introducing them to former quarterback Charlie Batch.

"This is super exciting," Batch said. "Of course, we're here because of the start of the draft week, but this is what the true meaning is and what people are talking about. You are truly born into Steelers Nation. And when you see young babies that are here, this is something that really is the experience of a lifetime and hopefully they get a chance to experience some good things with the Steelers over the years."

It's not the first time UPMC has dressed up newborn babies to celebrate. They wore Hershey's Kisses hats on Valentine's Day, rang in the holiday season in gingerbread hats and welcomed the U.S. Open at Oakmont with special gear.

The NFL draft is coming to Pittsburgh from Thursday to Saturday. You can see pictures of the hospital's celebrations below. 

"You have those early acts of violence happen earlier in the year. As the spring comes and as the summer comes, then you see acts of retaliation, so I think that's what we are really trying to get ahead of," Mosley explained.

There were shootings in Penn Hills, Bedford Dwellings, North Braddock and Homewood. The shootings in Bedford Dwellings and North Braddock were deadly. In all, 10 people were shot in four different shootings. 

Mosley said he thinks part of the increase in violence includes the teen takeover social media trend, neighborhood squabbles and rap music. Now the councilman's district is putting together a District 9 safe streets program.

"Working with violence interrupters, working with Zone 5, working with the East Liberty Chamber of Commerce, and we're looking at launching that probably sometime in June or early June," Mosley said. "We look to expand that to different parts of the district as well as see if it's a model that other districts and other communities may want to replicate." 

Rowdy behavior across Downtown Pittsburgh has become somewhat common in recent times.

"We're seeing almost daily groups of 40 to 50 to 60 or 70 juveniles in space, being disorderly," said Lt. Robert Monticelli, supervisor of the Downtown Public Safety Center.

Monticelli said some of those young people have committed crimes as well, ranging from disorderly conduct to even robberies and aggravated assaults.

Ahead of the draft, Pittsburgh police and other organizations at a press conference Monday morning said they're not having any of it.

Chief Jason Lando said there is "zero tolerance" for behavior that undermines safety and enjoyment. He stressed that the draft is for young people as well, but that there will be repercussions for those acting out of line.

"These actions will not be ignored, and there will be consequences," Lando said.

Sheldon Williams, the director of Pittsburgh Public Safety, said the city's main goal is to have a "safe, enjoyable event," calling it "once-in-a-generation."

Parents should act as parents, guardians, and caretakers. Youth should use common sense and have common courtesy, Williams said.

Lando says officers will be out in significant numbers, along with outreach and community partners.

"We look at them as the first line of defense," Monticelli said. "They are out there, they come from the communities, they know these individuals."

Pittsburgh Public Schools' superintendent, Dr. Wayne Walters, said the district has taken a serious role in setting expectations for students as well, adding that PPS brought students to the district's central administration building for a pre-NFL draft conversation on student safety last week.

Walters said they are working to create a culture of safety, accountability, and community pride.

"What stood out most in that space was the voice of our students," Walters said. "They spoke about pride in their city. They spoke about responsibility. They spoke about their role in making sure this is a positive experience for everyone."
