Giant Eagle in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood robbed during peak business hours – WPXI

PITTSBURGH — Imagine running to the grocery store after work to grab a few items, only for the place to be robbed in broad daylight and during peak hours. That’s what happened at the Giant Eagle on Murray Avenue.

“Yes, I’m afraid,” said Juda Kohenbash.

Kohenbash lives in Squirrel Hill and said yesterday’s robbery has him on edge.

At about 5:30 p.m. Monday, a man wearing a yellow hoodie went into the Giant Eagle on Murray Avenue. He said he had a weapon – but no one saw it.

The man demanded money from the register and then ran off. Police wouldn’t say how much he got. Regardless, it’s unnerving for people who live here.“

Pamela’s closed down, Eat N Park closed down. This neighborhood has become like a ghost town,” said Kohenbash.
