was early in the evening on monday night about 8:30, this suspect just went down the streets of philadelphia into this one particular neighborhood firing an ar-15 weapon while also wearing a bulletproof vest, wearing a ski mask, carrying a scanner, just firing inchris crim nately at different victims. they don t believe at this point there is any relation between the victims and this suspect. we learned from the district attorney there that also they believe the suspect was also carrying a ghost gun in addition to that ar-15, the guns obtained illegally. there are five people that were killed. the youngest of which was just 15 years old. one mother telling cnn affiliate that her son, her youngest child, 20-year-old, was also killed. he was just going to a local store to buy a candy bar. we also know that there were two 2-year-old twins that were killed just in the back seat of a car that they were driving in with their mother.
this point purely random. the shooter and the victims are not identified, but the suspect was using three firearms including an ar-style rifle before he was shot dead. cnn s natasha chan is following details for us. what are you hearing? what is completely random at this point? yes, sara, that is what the police said in a post to facebook last night. he described how this shooter roamed up to a quarter mile in this neighborhood firing at whatever entered his head to shoot at including six houses and three cars in addition to the people who you mentioned were hurt. let s go over those details. three people shot and killed and six others wounded, and the six others include two police officers, one farmington police officer and one state police officer and both are expected to be okay.
