Washington Mayor Jo Jo Burgess is calling for an end to further acts of violence following Saturday’s fatal shooting downtown. In a statement released Monday night, Burgess says since the incident, “numerous rumors and misinformation have been circulated throughout the community. Unfortunately, this has led to acts of vigilantism and other potential violence”. The mayor says “this type of behavior will not be tolerated” and “those who engage in such actions will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law”. Washington City Police continue to investigate the shooting that occurred around 3 a.m. near Joe’s Bakery in the 100-block of N. Main Street. 20 year old Julian Lassic was killed. Another person was also shot and transported to a Pittsburgh hospital. There is no word on their identity or condition. Mayor Burgess says police are working tirelessly but the investigation has been “hindered by a lack of cooperation”. Both the mayor and police say they know there are eyewitnesses who have critical information that could help solve this case. Anyone with information is urged to come forward. You can contact Police directly at 724-223-4226 or submit information anonymously through the tip line at 724-223-4108.
