One person is dead and four others were wounded in two separate shootings overnight.

Two men were shot, one dead, just outside of Chiefs Café in Oakland early Friday morning.

Police say it happened just before 1:40 a.m. at 307 North Craig Street.

One male was found on the sidewalk at the intersection of North Craig and Centre Avenue with a gunshot wound to the chest.

He was transported to the hospital in critical condition, but later upgraded to stable.

The second victim was found inside Chief’s Café lying face down, unresponsive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Shortly after that shooting, three men were wounded in Swissvale.

Allegheny County Police say they were notified a few minutes after 2 a.m. of gunfire in the 2100 block of Noble Street.

First responders transported the three men to area hospitals.

Two are in stable condition and one is in grave condition.

Police are investigating both incidents.
