BREAKING UPDATE: WE HAVE A NAME.

CNN reported Saturday the FBI now has the suspect’s identity before the name was released.

In a potentially related incident, Butler police are investigating a suspicious vehicle with out-of-state plates that has been parked since about 1:30 in the afternoon approximately a mile from the site of the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.

WTAE News reporter Yazmin Rodriguez reported live from the area where the bomb squad was called in to investigate.
