A woman is in critical condition after she was shot in Pittsburgh’s Lincoln-Lemington neighborhood, according to police.

Pittsburgh police responded to the 1400 block of Grotto Street shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday , after a ShotSpotter alert.

Zone 5 officers arrived to find a woman with multiple gunshot wounds to her upper body. She was transported to a local hospital.

Additional information was not immediately available. The investigation is ongoing.

ShotSpotter is a detection system used to triangulate the area where gunshots originate, by using multiple audio sensors to narrow down a possible location.
