Tonight, an East Erie neighborhood is under a lot of spot light for a shooting that happened at around 8:21 PM. Erie County 911 received tons of calls reporting on what was first thought to be a drive by shooting on the corner of Downing Avenue & Woodlawn Avenue in Burton, but when police arrived to the scene, they found a man who was shot in the chest 9 times and was reported dead on the scene. The man was identified as 22 year old Giovanni Summers of East Erie. Most witnesses in the 1800 block of Woodlawn Avenue reported that Giovanni was sitting on his porch at 1803 Woodlawn Avenue when he got up to go down Downing when a white car pulled up and shot Giovanni multiple times before pulling off southbound on Downing towards East 27th Street in Burton Heights. Erie Police found multiple shell casing all a long the corner of Woodlawn & Downing and had the street blocked off while they investigate. Erie Police are looking for a white 2012 Honda Civic with a dent to the front, if this car is spotted anywhere in the East Erie or Erie area you’re urged to call Erie Police at (814) 870-1125. Erie Police are continuing to investigate.
