The medical examiner has identified a man and teenager who were shot to death Sunday night in Wilkinsburg.  The victims are Jerrell Jeffries, 22, and Elarrah Findley, 18, of Pittsburgh.  Police were called about 9 p.m. to Midland Street, where Findley was found lying in the street with multiple gunshot wounds. Jeffries, who was also shot multiple times, was found in a car a little further up the street. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.  Investigators believe the victims were sitting in the front seat of the car while a third person was in the back seat. Police  believe that back seat passenger shot the man, then chased and shot the woman as she ran down the street.  A shooter has not been identified, police said.  Drugs were found in the car, according to police.  “There were stamp bags of suspected heroin or fentanyl in the vehicle, leading us to believe this might have been some sort of drug transaction and potential robbery,” Allegheny County Police Inspector Andrew Schurman said.  Anyone with information is asked to call the Allegheny County Police
