A 22-year-old Pittsburgh man was killed early Saturday morning when he was hit by gunshots fired at the vehicle in which he was riding in the southbound lanes of Route 28 near the Sharpsburg exit, state police at Kittanning said.

Shane Edwards, died at 2:40 a.m. at a Pittsburgh hospital, the Allegheny County Medical Examiner said. The cause of death was not available.

No one has been arrested in connection with Edwards’ shooting and Sharpsburg Police Chief Thomas Stelitano that another person in the vehicle would not cooperate with police who were investigating it as a homicide.

Stelitano said he understands that the shooting was the result of a dispute that started at Zone 28, an entertainment center at Harmarville. The shooting could have occurred anywhere between Harmarville and where the vehicle stopped on Route 28, Stelitano said.

State police said they believe the shooting about 2 a.m. was an isolated incident.

Although state police said the shooting occurred in Sharpsburg and Stelitano and Etna police said the shooting did not occur within their jurisdiction and their officers were not involved in the investigation.
