A student was shot and killed near Oliver Citywide Academy in Pittsburgh. 

The violent tragedy unfolded around 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday. Both the victim and the shooter remain unidentified and both are believed to be students, according to authorities.

"We believe, based on the information that we have and the video we’ve been able to see, that we have the actor in custody and there’s no potential threat to the other schools," Pittsburgh Police Bureau Cmdr. Richard Ford said.
