PITTSBURGH

PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh officials are trying to evict the mother of a man accused of killing three city police officers from the bullet-riddled home she shared with the suspect.

Code officials say Margaret Poplawski's home still has broken windows and bullet holes in walls from the April 4 shootout between her son, Richard Poplawski, 22, and police. Officials say the home is unsanitary and unfit for human occupancy.
