Pittsburgh police are investigating a late-night shooting on the South Side that sent one person to the hospital.

Officers responded to a Shotspotter alert in the 1200 block of Roland Way around 11:20 p.m. Saturday.

When officers arrived, they found a bar security guard had detained an armed person at the intersection of 13th and East Carson streets, said Pittsburgh Public Safety spokesman Maurice Matthews. Police arrested 25-year-old Jmel Jones in connection with the incident, Matthews said. He is charged with aggravated assault and recklessly endangering another person.

The unidentified victim was found at the intersection of 12th and Sarah streets and taken to the hospital in critical condition.

The investigation is ongoing.
