Carson City Saloon Shuts Down Temporarily Amidst Surge in Shootings

Carson City Saloon, a popular nightspot in Pittsburgh's South Side, has temporarily closed its doors due to recent gun violence in the area. The closure comes after three shootings and ongoing unchecked activity on Carson Street. The saloon plans to reopen in mid-August, pending action from city leaders to address the safety concerns. The incidents are under investigation, and last year, Mayor Ed Gainey and public safety officials took added precautions to ensure safety in the entertainment district.
