A Monongahela woman was found shot to death and another injured in South Franklin Township Saturday night.

Annalaya Wilkerson, 18, was found in the 500 block of Jolly School Road about 11 p.m. Saturday. Residents of a home in the area heard shots and called the police, according to Trooper Rocco Gagliardi, a spokesman for the Pennsylvania State Police.

Another female, a juvenile, was found shot at the same location and flown to UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh. The victims were found along the road, Gagliardi said.
