Philadelphia Shooting Leaves 3 Dead, 10 Injured in Grays Ferry

Philadelphia, July 7 (AP) – A tragic shooting in South Philadelphia early Monday resulted in the deaths of three people and left 10 others injured, according to authorities.

Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel reported that the deceased victims were adults, while two injured individuals were juveniles. The incident occurred shortly before 1 a.m. in the Grays Ferry neighborhood.

“Numerous rounds were fired on the block,” said Bethel, indicating the scale of the shooting.

One person has been taken into custody by police, and they were found in possession of a weapon.

Bethel also mentioned that police had been called to the same location on the previous night, resulting in some arrests.

The motive behind the shooting remains unclear.

Bethel described the act as “cowardly, want-to-be-thugs stuff.”

This incident comes after a series of shootings in the city and across the United States during the Fourth of July weekend, including an event where at least eight people were hit by gunfire near a South Philadelphia nightclub. (AP) SCY SCY
