Mother & Daughter Shot To Death In Swissvale

(WPXI) – A woman and her daughter were found shot to death in Swissvale Wednesday morning. According to Allegheny County police, Swissvale police were requested to help medics get into a barricaded apartment in the 7800 block of Sailor Place at around 10:13 a.m. First responders found a woman and female child dead at the scene from gunshot wounds. According to police, the preliminary investigation shows that this was a double homicide.  In a press briefing, police said medics were originally called to the scene for a man with chest pains. They went to one of the apartments in the building but no one answered. They found out the call came from a different apartment which they couldn’t get in to. Police later said that the victims were mother and daughter. Police are looking to talk with 35-year-old Kareef Antonio Easington who they said had a relationship with the woman who was killed. Police said they don’t know if Easington is the one who called 911. Anyone with information concerning this incident is asked to call the County Police Tip Line 1-833-ALL-TIPS. Callers can remain anonymous.
