The "potentially armed and dangerous" teenager charged with shooting and killing his dad in East Pittsburgh is in custody, officials said. 

Tayron Reid, 19, turned himself in to detectives and was taken to the Allegheny County Jail on Monday, the Allegheny County Police Department said. On Sept. 23, Allegheny County police said they were looking for the 19-year-old in connection with a fatal shooting in East Pittsburgh.

County police said the Eastern Regional Mon Valley Police Department was called to a home on Ridge Avenue around 10:35 pm. for reports of shots fired. When first responders got there, they found 45-year-old Ta'Ron Reid suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He died at the scene, police said.

The Allegheny County homicide unit began to investigate. Through witness interviews, police said detectives learned Ta'Ron Reid's son, Tayron Reid, was responsible for the shooting. After consulting with the district attorney's office, a charge of homicide was filed against Tayron Reid. 

Police previously said he was "potentially armed and dangerous." No other information was released on Monday. 

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the county police tipline at 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
