Family: Man killed trying to break into Uniontown home is relative of young woman shot inside

BY LAUREN LINDER
Uniontown police said what started as a home invasion led to a shooting Saturday, striking two people, killing a man trying to break in, and seriously hurting a young woman inside.

The woman’s aunt told KDKA her niece is undergoing surgery, and that the two people shot are related.

Christina Craggette is still processing the moment she saw her niece, Adrieonna Fitzgerald, 19, on a stretcher after she was shot.

“That’s like my baby, you know, I helped raise her,” Craggette said. “It was hard seeing her in pain, knowing that you can’t do nothing about it.”

Craggette said Adrieonna was the female shot during what police said was an apparent home invasion at the apartment complex at Pershing Court.

First responders were called to respond to an apartment unit at the complex around 2:20 p.m.

Police said a 23-year-old male and a female, Adrieonna, were in the unit when two to three people tried to enter the home by force.

Bullets went flying.

Make it a family affair? Maybe if they shared a little more “soul food” they wouldn’t be trying to take away the souls?

Whiz Wheel up for a workout? Wonder which one was the Whyte Soopreamists?

My Scots and my Irish GGGGrand Pappies were American Riflemen at Kings Mountain back yonder. If the M1 Garand won WWII, it was the Lancaster Rifles that won The Rev War.

More than 2 centuries have passed since those citizens stepped up. May we properly honor their sacrifice, celebrate our freedom and Nation. May we not sully their victory by destroying the country.
