Shooting in White Oak leaves 1 man dead

Several police departments are investigating a shooting that left one man dead in White Oak, Allegheny County, on Sunday afternoon.

The Allegheny County Police Department was alerted to a shooting in the intersection of Jacks Run Road and Lincoln Way around 2:18 p.m. Sunday.

First responders found an adult male suffering from gunshot wounds. The victim was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced deceased, county police confirmed. He was later identified as Kenneth Hayman, 33, of McKeesport.

The White Oak Police Department and the Elizabeth Township Police Department have issued a "Be On The Lookout" alert for a vehicle connected to the incident.

On Monday, police said they located the vehicle connected to the incident in Mount Pleasant, Westmoreland County, about 25 miles from White Oak.

Elizabeth Township police believe the suspects' vehicle was occupied by three or four men, who were seen wearing face coverings.

"Authorities advise that the individuals may be armed with long guns and should be considered armed and extremely dangerous," Elizabeth Township police said via social media.

Dennis Dull, who lives nearby, says that he didn't witness the shooting, but he is stunned that it happened in his community.

"I was kind of shocked to see all the police and everything. And when I heard that there was a shooting, that's very rare around here," Dull said. "I have never actually heard of one, not to say there hasn't been. McKeesport is pretty close, and you hear of a lot of shootings down there, but for it to be coming over this way, it's definitely a concern."

An investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information concerning this incident is asked to call the County Police Tip Line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS. Callers can remain anonymous.
