PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Scores of shots were fired at a west Philadelphia street July 4 gathering, killing two men and wounding a teenage girl, authorities said.
Police said the 22- and 23-year-old men were pronounced dead at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center following the gunfire shortly after 10:30 p.m. Sunday. A 16-year-old girl shot multiple times was taken to a hospital in stable condition.
Deputy Commissioner Robin Wimberly told KYW-TV that the gunfire occurred during a gathering similar to a block party although streets weren’t blocked off. Police found scores of shell casings in the street, which Wimberly called “very troubling” — and investigators told reporters Monday that 100 shots or more may have been fired. WCAU-TV reported that bullet holes could be seen in nearby cars and buildings.
