She said after the car crashed into the hillside, a man inside the truck started shooting at the victims.

"The aggressor got out of his pickup, jumped on the trunk of victims' car, and I heard three pops come out if it," Beaver said.

It was at this point she ran to get a picture of the truck before the driver took off. She said he was driving outbound on Banksville Road.

Investigators said a man was shot in the face and a woman was possibly grazed by a bullet. She also had back injuries. Both were taken to a local hospital in stable condition.

"His face was pretty banged up because of the impact of the vehicles," Beaver said.

According to Beaver, a young child was also in the car but he didn't appear to be injured. She helped to get him cleaned up and comforted him at the scene.

"At this point, it does not appear to be a random act," Pittsburgh Public Safety Spokesperson Chris Togneri said at the scene.

Investigators are piecing it all together and said they aren't sure how they all know each other.

Police say McClintock faces two counts of criminal attempted homicide, two counts of aggravated assault, a person not to possess a firearm, and three counts of recklessly endangering another person.
