On Sunday, 24-year-old Joden Rocco was charged in the stabbing death of 24-year-old Dulane Cameron Jr. outside of a bar in Pittsburgh. But as details from the incident emerge, a story that initially seemed like just an unusually tragic outcome to a bar fight has been discovered to have serious racial implications.
Rocco (who is white) allegedly attacked Cameron (who was black) and his friend after Rocco was denied entry at the Tequila Cowboy. For context, this is one of many popular bars and restaurants that sit on the North Shore, the stretch of the city where both Heinz Field (home of the Pittsburgh Steelers) and PNC Park (home of the Pittsburgh Pirates) exist. (Its also where former Steelers offensive coordinator Todd Haley got hurt in a bar fight on New Years Eve.)
Anyway, after leaving the bar, Rocco seemed to be itching for a fight and encountered Cameron and his friend.

From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette:
According to the criminal complaint, Mr. Rocco was observed in a surveillance video acquired from Tequila Cowboy attempting to enter the restaurants Little Red Corvette bar. After being denied entrance, he headed east on North Shore Drive toward PNC Park, where he encountered Mr. Cameron, who was walking with friend, Trei Hendon.
Mr. Rocco was seen bouncing on the balls of his feet and appearing to be very aggressive, police said, when he all of a sudden began attacking the men, trying to punch them. Mr. Cameron and Mr. Hendon were viewed backing away as a crowd began to gather. Moments later, Rocco, who was shirtless, is observed removing an object from his pants and walking toward the men just out of view.

So Trump is rolling back coal emissions rules
That'll make the coal driven Choo-choo train lobby jump for joy, I'm sure.
What's next, steam driven horseless carriages?
