Two innocent bystanders were wounded as gunmen fired automatic weapons across a Philadelphia neighborhood, police say.
Officers responded around 3:15 a.m. to reports of gunshots on the 2900 block of Frankford Avenue, near Birch Street, in Kensington.
Police found a 33-year-old female and a 39-year-old male suffering from gunshot wounds to the arm. Both were taken to Temple University Hospital in stable condition.As police were investigating, they heard multiple shots not too far away.At Williams and Coral streets, about two blocks from where the original shooting took place, police found over 100 spent shell casings, including multiple rifle rounds.
Police are investigating both shooting scenes, but say, as of now, the two incidents do not appear to be connected. "It was just coincidental that just a few minutes after we found the two victims at Frankford and Birch, the officers heard multiple gunshots about two blocks south," Small said.
