Please Be Aware
The federal hate crime trial is ongoing, with government testimony expected to continue next week. The defense will then present its case. After the defense concludes its case, there will be closing arguments followed by jury deliberation on the 63-count indictment.
There is a national effort planned as part of a “white unity project” that is asking for white supremacy groups to actively flyer between June 17-19th, strategically timed with Juneteenth. So far, Pittsburgh has not been mentioned in these efforts but please be aware. Please continue to report white supremacy stickers or flyers observed to us via the Incident Report link and include a photo of the flyer or sticker.
The Allegheny County Emergency Services, Division of Emergency Management provides a wide variety of training options dedicated to emergency planning, response, management, and recovery. Please see full training schedule online if you are interested in participating in any classes.
