awk can locate the proper lines in your file, then issue a unix command. In the following, it is looking for lines where word1 of the line contains string xyz, then it is echoing word2 for those lines. You would need to change your search criteria, and change $2 to whichever word the PID is (or the PID could be located by other means). Once you get the echo working right, you can change echo to kill -9 or whatever.

Code:
awk '$1~"xyz" {system("echo " $2)}' myfile
