Paramedics took the three to two separate hospitals; their injuries were not considered life-threatening, said Mark Bocian, the Pittsburgh EMS chief. One was grazed in the head, one was grazed in the side and the third was shot in the ankle, Bocian said. Police were still looking for the shooter or shooters, Bocian said. Canine units were searching the nearby woods, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported, quoting an Allegheny County dispatch supervisor. Brashear High School is the citys largest high school by enrollment, with 1,416 students. Part of Brashear also houses South Hills Middle School, which has 580 students, the Post-Gazette reported.
