PITTSBURGH

The girlfriend of the man accused of killing a suburban Pittsburgh police officer is now facing charges.

Police say Kashawna Jackson provided a false alibi for 32-year-old Ronald Robinson by saying they were together at the time of the fatal shooting.

Authorities say Robinson killed Penn Hills police officer Michael Crawshaw on Sunday after leaving a house where he also shot and killed Danyal Morton over a $500 drug debt.

Police ended up charging him with harassment.A local judge said he would dismiss the charge if Hood stayed away from the girl. But the next day, Hood and three friends wore the "Not Guilty" T-shirts to school. All four were cited for harassment and found guilty.
