Squib, a mother of two, was taken to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.
So far there are no suspects in the shooting.
Squib till her death was an elementary teacher at Grace Bible Church.
According to Squib’s friends, they cannot think of anyone who would want to hurt her, they told KDKA.
Fellow teacher and friend Nikki Updegraff told KDKA saying, “If it was an accident, why would you be shooting a gun near a house anyway? I can’t imagine who it would be if it was on purpose.”
Pastor Jason Losier told this to KDKA: “Tracy, she was full of life. It’s senseless and needless and it’s like this bright light was snuffed out.”
Squib’s children spoke through the pastor saying: “we had the best mom in the world. Justice needs to be served.”
Investigation on the shooting is still ongoing.
