The Sheriff’s Office said that this past weekend, they learned that Schrock was squatting in an abandoned apartment on Kirkpatrick Street in Braddock.
Officials said detectives entered the building Tuesday, originally going to another unoccupied apartment. While inside, they heard noises coming from the apartment below.
When detectives left the building, they saw Schrock open a window and look outside. He tried to exit the apartment three different ways before he was taken into custody without further incident.
Schrock is currently being held in the Allegheny County Jail.
