2 convicted in Perry Hilltop killing

An Allegheny County jury convicted two North Side men on Tuesday in the slaying of a man in the Perry Hilltop neighborhood.

Ricky Rouse, 21, was convicted of first-degree murder in the Feb. 24, 2009 killing of Antoine Cooper, 21, who was shot in the head on Hawkins Street. The jury convicted Damone Porter, 22, of third-degree murder.

Common Pleas Judge Joseph K. Williams will sentence both men at a later date.
