Suspect dead after officer-involved shooting in Upper Saint Clair

An incident in Upper Saint Clair, Pennsylvania, led to a fatal officer-involved shooting. The incident began as a domestic situation involving 48-year-old Christopher Shepherd. Shepherd was reportedly seen entering a home and locking all the doors, and he allegedly attempted to cut officers with a knife when they tried to enter through a plywood-covered window.
