To those who survived this horrific crime against us, We will rise up from this. Please take the time you need to heal and let God do his work. I love you all.

Marty Lischner, who lives in Munhall, said he heard the shots when they were fired.

“I was actually getting ready for bed and we heard extremely loud gunfire. I knew it was gunfire. I just came outside, as soon as the gunfire started fading, I came outside to see what was going on and sure enough, it was bad, I can tell you, it was bad,” said Lischner.

Lischner considers the bar a problem to the neighborhood.

“This bar from day one has been a complete nuisance. Parked in front of my driveway. Parked in front of the neighbor’s driveway. Throwing garbage everywhere. Loud, they stay up until 2, 3,4, 5 o’clock in the morning,” said Lischner.

Munhall Mayor Rob Falce says Lischner is not the first person to come forward with complaints about the bar.

“I have heard concerns about the bar. Residents have contacted me about the loud music, parking down here and other activities. We haven’t had anything like this ‘til now,” said Falce.

Allegheny County Police are asking anyone with information about the shooting to call their tip line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
