PITTSBURGH – A resident of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was sentenced in federal court on a charge of obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder.
George Allen, 33, was sentenced to twelve months and a day of incarceration followed by three years of supervised release by United States District Judge Arthur J. Schwab. Judge Schwab permitted the defendant to remain on bond and self-report on February 1, 2022, to begin his sentence.
According to court documents: “On May 30, 2020, Allen did knowingly and willfully throw multiple pieces of concrete at a vehicle occupied by police officers. One of the pieces of concrete shattered the front passenger window and struck an officer, causing minor bruising to the officer’s arm. Allen’s actions caused the obstruction, impediment and interference of law enforcement officers engaged in the lawful performance of their official duties.”
Police seek the public’s help in identifying this male suspected of throwing a cinder block through the window of a Tactical Operations Support truck on May 30.
