Hmm...I never seem to read about such things happening in Cranberry...perhaps this is the kind of thing that provides the city with what Soulless Cranberry lacks... ;-)

Don't worry, no one will care since it happened in the South Hills. The astroturfing realtors that plague this forum haven't deemed this area "hot" yet so no one will go rushing to downplay this.

The fact that the nearest major thoroughfare was PA 51 tells me everything I need to know.

It's so common in Cranberry that it doesn't make the news...

Only guns going off around here are nail guns building houses and condos. Those guns never seem to stop.

Don't forget about shooting ranges and gun clubs with loooong waiting lists to join.

There is a good chance that if 51 had been widened and the traffic eased he would have gotten away.



The great cavernous divide that 51 provided between the hilltop (not so much Bon Air) and Brookline is a curse in terms of lack of a connectivity but is also a blessing in terms of a lack of connectivity.
