New from overnight, Philadelphia Police are looking for a teenager who escaped custody during a trip to the hospital. Officers say the 17yearold slipped away after they took him to roxboro hospital. The teen was not handcuffed when he got away. Also new from overnight, police are looking for two men who drove away from a Home Invasion robbery in west philadelphia. This happened around 11 30. Investigators say the men robbed and pistol whipped a man inside of the house. The victim was taken to the hospital, but he is expected to be okay. The intruders got away with a tv, a playstation and some video games. Prosecutors say both men charged with the murder of Philadelphia Police officer Robert Wilson iii fired the shots that killed him. The court postponed the preliminary hearings originally scheduled for yesterday for Carlton Hipps and ramon williams.

He stopped the robbers but died in a shootout. Prosecutors say they plan to show Surveillance Video of that shootout at the rescheduled preliminary hearing. Its going to take a lot of time to put the Video Evidence on, all the forensic evidence that was recovered, the analysis of the forensic evidence the crime scene, witnesses, it will be a lengthy preliminary hearing.

The new civilian Oversight Board is aimed at improving training investigations and community relations. In a report released earlier this week the Justice Department revealed more than 90 recommendations that it has for the citys Police Department. The officers cannot just drive around in their cars with little to no interaction with residents. That type of handsoff policing does nothing to foster better relationships or create trust. Now, the mayor also wants funding for body cameras, tasers and more ammunition. New jersey lawmakers want to provide the States Police departments with more diversity training. Proposed legislation would require more courses for members of law enforcement. Those courses would focus on racial ethnic and religious diversity training.
