PITTSBURGH \u2014 Stabbing and shots-fired incidents just hours apart led to charges for a Pittsburgh couple.<\/p>\n
Police went to the 1100 block of Lakewood Street in Elliott around 11:15 p.m. Thursday for a one-round gunfire detection alert.<\/p>\n
Court records obtained by Channel 11 show officers arrived to find Andre Reese, 32, walking down the steps of an apartment building.<\/p>\n
Officers detained Reese and found a handgun, as well as an apparent bullet hole, in his front hoodie pocket.<\/p>\n
Reese wasn\u2019t injured, but appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, police say.<\/p>\n
Investigators found a bullet hole in a nearby apartment. A bullet reportedly went through two doors and a set of steps before hitting a wall in the same room where someone was sleeping.<\/p>\n
Reese allegedly told officers that the gun went off in his pocket by accident.<\/p>\n
He was arrested and taken to the Allegheny County Jail. A judge denied him bail.<\/p>\n
Just after 1 a.m. Friday, police were sent back to the apartment for reports of someone who\u2019d been stabbed.<\/p>\n
Officers found a woman who\u2019d been stabbed in the armpit and abdomen. Medics took her to the hospital, where she was said to be stable.<\/p>\n
The victim told police that Reese\u2019s girlfriend \u2014 identified as Shaye Elizabeth Gaetano, 30 \u2014 showed up outside the apartment and stabbed the woman during a fight before leaving in a vehicle.<\/p>\n
Police issued a warrant for Gaetano, though online court records show she was arrested Friday and denied bail.<\/p>\n
Reese is charged with discharging a firearm into an occupied structure and recklessly endangering another person, while Gaetano is charged with aggravated assault, possessing instruments of crime and simple assault.<\/p>\n
