Police Identify Man Shot Dead in Pittsburgh Bar

Pittsburgh police have identified a man fatally shot at a bar, but aren't saying whether a man in custody will be charged in the shooting.

The dead man has been identified as 23-year-old Corey Clark, of Penn Hills. Investigators say Clark used to live a crime-ridden Homewood neighborhood before moving to a suburb east of the city.

Pittsburgh public safety spokeswoman Sonya Toler said the shooting happened shortly before 10:20 p.m. Sunday at Cliff's Bar and Grill in the Homewood section of the city.

Police haven't said what prompted the shooting, but they have taken a person of interest into custody. He is described only as a person of interest and his name has not been released.

Police have also towed a vehicle from the scene.
