A West Mifflin man died Monday night after three men opened fire on him at the Crawford Village housing complex.

The Allegheny County medical examiner’s office said George A. Brosey, 54, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Allegheny County police Lt. Venerando Costa said the shooting happened outside Building 47.

Police said survelliance video shows Brosey walking up the steps of an acquaintance’s apartment just before 11:30 p.m. when he is approached by a man wearing a light-colored hooded sweatshirt, who walks from between the 47 and 48 buildings.

The man shot Brosey, Costa said, and then two other men standing on Pirl Street, approximately 200 feet away, also fired multiple shots.

Costa said the motive for the shooting is unclear. The shooters were described only as Black males. No other description was released.

Anyone with information concerning the incident is asked to call the Allegheny County police tip line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS (1-833-255-8477). Callers may remain anonymous.
