Pittsburgh considers stricter gun laws after synagogue attack
None
The Pittsburgh City Council began considering a package of gun-control laws on Tuesday, including a ban on assault-style rifles, nearly two months after a gunman shouting anti-Semitic messages killed 11 people in a synagogue.
The measure would also ban certain types of ammunition and allow courts to ban gun ownership by people deemed to pose a significant threat of violence.
Seven of nine council members agreed to co-sponsor the legislation at Tuesday's meeting.
