WILKINSBURG, Pa. — Police are investigating an unusual shooting in Wilkinsburg late Tuesday night.

Investigators said the victim was playing dominos with friends on a porch of a home around 11 p.m. when he decided to urinate over a side railing.

According to witnesses, someone below the porch could be heard yelling, "Yo, yo!" Moments later police said several shots were fired striking 35-year-old Roosevelt Robinson, of Wilkinsburg.

Robinson was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died.

Man the commercial on the video was classic....a toilet on a beach....who could have tied this to the shooting any better.....

Some people just won’t believe it’s raining.

Great Leader has been doing this to the United States for three years. The sad news is many people believe him when he tells them it’s just a little rain.

Certainly not John Vernon!

Obviously no foul, no harm didn’t apply. Too bad you don’t have commercials during domino games.

[Bon mots]

He really managed to pi$$ off that guy.

I can’t see the video. What kind of porch are we talking about that someone can be below it? I must have a different idea of what ‘porch’ means.

Police are looking for a person who shouts ‘Yo’ when being urinated upon.

Wow, if someone ever yells "YoYo" to me, I will be sure to pay attention!

"What kind of porch are we talking about that someone can be below it? I must have a different idea of what ‘porch’ means."

In a lot of urban areas, "porch" and "balcony" are used interchangeably.

“Yellow Rain was a 1981 political incident in which the United States Secretary of State Alexander Haig accused the Soviet Union of supplying T-2 mycotoxin to the Communist states in Vietnam and Laos for use in counterinsurgency warfare.[1]

Refugees described many different forms of attacks, including a sticky yellow liquid falling from planes or helicopters, which was dubbed “yellow rain”. The US government alleged that over ten thousand people had been killed in attacks using these chemical weapons.[2]”

At this point in history Wilkinsburg is a toilet, so I can see how the poor fellow was confused.

Who was it that said something like: “Freedom is being able to take a piss off your front porch.”

Who was it that said something like: “Freedom is being able to take a piss off your front porch.”

Obviously is wasn't the guy who lived downstairs.

It used to be when someone such as a gunfighter came to a bad end, they said “he died with his boots on.”

All they can say about this guy is, “he died with his d!ck out.”
