Pittsburgh active shooting situation: Information about the suspect
The suspect involved in an active shooting situation in Pittsburgh's Garfield neighborhood is dead after a several-hour standoff, public safety officials confirmed early Wednesday evening
Action News Investigates identified the suspect as William Hardison. Court records show Wednesday morning that an eviction for Hardison was scheduled at the address on Broad Street in Garfield, which is the epicenter of the active shooter situation.
Action News Investigates learned that the home was owned by William Hardison's father, who sold the house to a company called 907 East Street. In May, the company filed a complaint to evict Hardison, but they say he refused to leave and also refused to pay rent for the past five months.
Last week, a judge granted a request by the property owner to evict Hardison and lock his belongings inside the house
