A 26-year-old man was shot and killed early Wednesday at a public housing complex in McKees Rocks.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the man as Aaron Shane Touchstone of Pittsburgh.

The shooting was reported just before 12:20 a.m. at the Uansa Village Housing Complex.

When McKees Rocks police and paramedics arrived at the housing complex, they found Touchstone with multiple gunshot wounds outside a building. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Allegheny County Police said Touchstone was standing on the front porch of a vacant unit when he was approached by two men and shot.

Police didn’t have any suspects or a motive for the shooting as of Wednesday morning.

Authorities are asking anyone who heard or saw anything to call the Allegheny County Police Tip Line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS (1-833-255-8477). Callers can remain anonymous.
