Famed cancer theorist Dr. Alfred G. Knudson Jr. dies at 93

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A western Pennsylvania man has pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of another man in a car on Interstate 376 in Pittsburgh almost a year ago. Twenty-year-old Keontre (kee-ON'-tray) Easley of Braddock entered the plea Monday in Allegheny County in the Aug. 23 death of 24-year-old Shaka McGhie. The district attorney's office said no sentencing agreement was in effect for Easley, who also pleaded to a firearms count, but he would also receive concurrent two- to four-year terms on gun and drug charges in separate cases when he is sentenced in October. Prosecutors said McGhie forced Easley and his girlfriend to drive in search of drug money he said he was owed. Authorities said Easley and McGhie struggled over a gun and McGhie was shot multiple times.
