NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. (AP) — Police say a man out on his newspaper delivery route was shot and killed in New Kensington.
Officers responded to the neighborhood around 3 a.m. Thursday for a report of shots fired and a car accident. Police found a Chevrolet Impala had crashed into a chain-link fence in front of two homes.
