A friend witnessed someone trying to evade cops on the parkway near Monroeville so I assume it’s connected?

I came down Swissvale Ave to get onto S. Braddock, traffic was backed up so we rerouted to Greendale. Cops on foot looking near the old Foodland. Looks like whomever they are looking for ditched a silver sedan and took off to what I assume would be Nine Mile Run area of Frick.

Avoid the inbound exit of Edgewood/Swissvale! It’s completely blocked and looks as if said silver sedan may have hit a few cars who were waiting at that light.

Correction the silver sedan was hit by a beat up gold mini van, mini van was the vehicle the driver took off from

I saw the guy as I was leaving the park; he was running parallel to the parkway toward the tunnel opposite the trail. Three cops came running by a minute later, guns drawn, and I heard on their radio that he was armed apparently. Kinda scary, I didn't know what was up but the guy did stop and we stared at each other for a minute.

Near the old food land. Good God, you grew up here.

Foodland closed when I was maybe 4 years old but true to my yinzer roots, I will never call it anything else. That and for the life of me, I can’t remember what the hell it is now.
