PITTSBURGH (AP) – Authorities have identified a New Jersey resident as the second person gunned down last week at a Western Pennsylvania industrial park.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports the Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the second man as 24-year-old Divine Barrett of Paterson, New Jersey.

A spokeswoman for Pittsburgh’s Department of Public Safety says the double shooting happened just before midnight Wednesday in Windgap Industrial Park.

Officers found one man lying in the street and another in a vehicle. Both had been shot at least once. Paramedics pronounced them dead at the scene.

Authorities say 29-year-old Dante Dawkins of Clairton was also killed. Clairton is located about 12 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.

No arrests have been made.
