Police break up group vandalizing East Liberty
Between 40 and 50 people jumped on cars and tried to break windows early this morning in East Liberty, Pittsburgh police said.
Police received a report of a bandana-clad group vandalizing property about 12:50 a.m. at Baum Boulevard and South Highland Avenue, Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard said.
The people jumped on cars, attempted to break windows and littered the streets, Richard said. Police cited several people, she said, but didn’t provide a number.
She said police learned that many of the people may be affiliated with a group calling themselves “Occupy Everything” and were celebrating “their escapades” at the nearby Shadow Lounge. Richard said she didn’t know what “Occupy Everything” is.
Isolated incident!
