'I'm sure everybody is saying prayers'
Jack Cohen, founder of the Cranberry Jewish Group, said he has been waiting to hear more information from officials about Saturday morning's synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh.
“It's very very sad for our entire community for everyone,” Cohen said. “You know you never thought these things would come to your own backyard.”
Cohen said the Jewish community needs to support one another and ask for the support from the greater community too.
“I'm sure everybody is saying prayers,” he said. “It doesn't matter what faith you are.”
Police have taken a shooter into custody who opened fire at a Pittsburgh synagogue, according to an AP report.
The shooter attacked the Tree of Life synagogue , which is located at the intersection of Wilkins and Shady avenues in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood.
Three officers were also shot and multiple casualties have been reported, according to the report.
