Two people were injured, with one in critical condition, following two separate shootings late Friday night in Pittsburgh’s Hazelwood and Beltzhoover neighborhoods, according to police.

Police responded to a shots-fired call just before 11:20 p.m. near the intersection of Boggs and Warrington avenues in Beltzhoover. They arrived to find a man who had been shot in the back.

EMS transported the man to a local hospital in critical condition.

• Ten minutes later, officers were called for multiple ShotSpotter alerts near Flowers Avenue in the city’s Hazelwood neighborhood. They found a man whose neck had been grazed by a bullet. Police said the man told them he’d been shot on Flowers and fled to a nearby home for help.

He was taken to the hospital in stable condition.

Police are investigating both incidents.
