‘We were filled with terror,’ Pittsburgh synagogue attack survivor testifies; closing arguments Thursday – By Paula Reed Ward And Justin Vellucci (Triblive) / June 14, 2023
Andrea Wedner and her 97-year-old mother Rose Mallinger lay head-to-head under their pew, hiding from the man who had just fired an AR-15 repeatedly inside the Tree of Life synagogue.
They were frantic.
Wedner had seen the man later identified as Robert Bowers standing in the doorway at the back of the synagogue’s Pervin Chapel.
“He was holding a big, long gun,” she said.
As Wedner called 911, begging for the police to come, she tried to keep her mother calm.
