OK, I write reminders on my calendar when there’s some news story that doesn’t have an immediate follow-up, and I haven’t found one on this one.

Unfortunately, the information I jotted down was so sketchy that my Google-fu is pretty useless. Basically, as I remember it, some teens killed someone (possibly more than one) in Pittsburgh using a shotgun.

Maybe that’s a common occurrence there. . . I don’t know. Anyway, it happened this year, but I can’t even find the original story, let alone a floow-up.

Anyone???
