Police investigating 3rd deadly shooting in 24 hours after man found dead in Homewood

A man is dead after another shooting on Wednesday morning, this time in Pittsburgh's Homewood neighborhood. 

According to Pittsburgh Public Safety, just after 5 a.m., police were sent to the 7000 block of Idlewild Street after a one-round ShotSpotter notification. 

Once they arrived on the scene, they found a man who had been shot in the chest and was unresponsive. Officers attempted to render medical aid until medics arrived on the scene, but the man was ultimately pronounced dead. 

Thomas Jackson was arrested and charged with criminal homicide and tampering with physical evidence in the shooting, Pittsburgh Public Safety said on Wednesday evening. 

It was the second shooting in a 24-hour timespan in Homewood. On Tuesday, one person was killed, and another was left in critical condition after a shooting inside the Quick Pick on Frankstown Avenue. 

Meanwhile, also on Wednesday morning, a woman was killed in a shooting in Bedford Dwellings, marking three deadly shootings over the past day in the city.
