Philly again tops 20 shooting victims in another weekend of gun violence
Philly again tops 20 shooting victims in another weekend of gun violence

Three teenagers were among five people shot just before midnight Saturday in North Philadelphia when an outdoor gathering of more than 200 mostly young people turned chaotic as “several” men began shooting at police, authorities said.
And for the second consecutive weekend in the city, shooting victims totaled more than 20, according to police reports.
“It’s disturbing, it’s disheartening,” Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said of the weekend’s continuation of a violent trend, which included six more shootings involving two deaths in the 4½ hours after she spoke to reporters shortly before 2 a.m. at the North Philly scene at North 10th and Brown Streets.
CHARLES FOX / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER"Disturbing" and "disheartening" is how Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw described yet another weekend of violence at this shooting scene at 10th and Brown Streets in North Philadelphia.
According to Outlaw, police were already in the area around 11:30 p.m. Saturday in anticipation of another event nearby. They saw what appeared to be a muzzle flash and heard a “boom,” and then almost simultaneously, heard gun shots from a different type of weapon, she said.
No officers were injured or had fired their weapons, police said later Sunday afternoon. That update said officers had responded to a 911 call about a person with a gun on the 700 block of North 10th Street, arriving to find a crowd in excess of 200 people. Then “several males began shooting at the police,” the report said.
