Philadelphia mass shooting has left at least three people dead and about 13 injured, as shootings and killings continue in cities across the United States.
According to the report by TMZ, the Philadelphia mass shooting that saw three people dead and at least 13 injured, happened on Saturday night after gunmen opened fire on a crowded street.
It happened just before midnight, Police Inspector D.F. Pace said there were “several active shooters shooting into the crowd.”
One of the Police officers, TMZ revealed, got close to one of the shooters and fired at him, but it’s unclear if the shooter was hit, and he apparently dropped the gun and fled the scene.
The shooters chose an area that is at the heart of the entertainment section of Philly and an area with lots of bars and restaurants. Hundreds of folks were doing what they routinely do on the weekend, eat, party and enjoy the company of fellow Philadelphians when shots rang out.
Pace said 2 handguns were recovered, including one that had an extended magazine.
So far, no arrests.
There have been 239 mass shootings this year alone, the report stated.
