2 people injured during shooting at Eagles Super Bowl 59 victory parade celebration

USA Today14-02-2025

The Eagles Super Bowl 59 victory parade was a success, but the ending was marred by a shooting that left two people injured near 23rd and Spring Garden Streets on Friday, CBS News reports.
It's unclear at this time what led up to the shooting or what the status of the victims is at this time.
The shooting took place just blocks from the Philadelphia Art Museum. Crowds gathered throughout the city to celebrate the Super Bowl LIX victory parade.
This is the second year in a row that gun violence has taken place during the parade, with Kansas City being the site of a mass shooting on February 14, 2024, at Union Station, which resulted in one death and 22 injuries.
Friday marks one year since the tragedy sent shockwaves through a Super Bowl-winning city.

Goals galore in third instalment of Stanley Cup Final

Defending champions Florida capitalised on Edmonton's worst performance in weeks to thrash the Oilers in Game 3 for a 2-1 lead in the Stanley Cup Final. Brad Marchand and Sam Bennett scored again, Sam Reinhart and Carter Verhaeghe each got their first goal in the series as the Panthers registered a 6-1 rout on Monday night. THE PANTHERS TAKE THE SERIES LEAD!! 😼 Catch Game 4 of the #StanleyCup Final between the @EdmontonOilers and @FlaPanthers Thursday, June 12 at 8p ET on @NHL_On_TNT, @SportsonMax, @Sportsnet, and @TVASports! — NHL (@NHL) June 10, 2025 Marchand became the oldest player to score in each of the first three games of a final and the first to open the scoring the next time out after notching an overtime winner. His 11 goals in the final are the most among active players, one more than similarly ageless Corey Perry. Bennett added his NHL playoff-leading 14th goal, just the second at home, after making a big hit on Edmonton's Vasily Podkolzin that contributed to the turnover to spring him on a breakaway. Marchand and Bennett have combined to score eight of Florida's 13 goals in the series. But it was not just them this time. Verhaeghe buried a perfect shot into the net under the cross bar on the power play, Reinhart made up for missing the net on an earlier attempt, Aaron Ekblad scored to chase Stuart Skinner on the fifth goal on 23 shots and Evan Rodrigues added the exclamation point in the waning minutes. At the other end of the ice, Sergei Bobrovsky earned the "Bobby! Bobby!" chants from a fired up South Florida crowd. The two-time Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender known as "Bob" was on his game for the very few quality chances the disjointed Oilers mustered, making 32 saves. Perry - at 40 the oldest player in the series - beat Bobrovsky with some silky hands for a power-play goal, keeping up this final being a showcase of cagey veterans along with Marchand. Connor McDavid could not get his team on track, and Edmonton took 15 minors - led by Evander Kane's three plus a misconduct to add up to 85 penalty minutes - including a brawl that ensued with less than 10 minutes left. Trent Frederic and Darnell Nurse, who fought Jonah Gadjovich, got misconducts that knocked them out of a game with an outcome determined long before. After the final looked as evenly matched as can be with Games 1 and 2 each needing extra time, overtime and then double OT, Game 3 was a lopsided mismatch. The Oilers came unglued to the point Jake Walman resorted to squirting water on Panthers players on their bench from his spot on the visiting side. The teams have some extra time off before Game 4 on Thursday night, when the Panthers have the chance to take a 3-1 lead and move to the verge of going back to back.

Lil Durk Denied Bail Again in Murder-for-Hire Case

Lil Durk will remain in custody pending his October trial, at least for now. In a new ruling issued Monday, U.S. District Judge Michael Fitzgerald declined to release the Grammy-winning rapper, born Durk Banks, on a new beefed-up bail proposal including $4.5 million cash and 24-hour home detention with electronic monitoring and private security. More from Rolling Stone Justin Baldoni's $400 Million Countersuit Against Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds Dismissed Sean Combs' Ex Testifies Cassie Lawsuit Was Like 'Reading My Own Story' Sean Combs Trial: Second Mistrial Motion, 'Freak-Off' Audio and Peek Inside Mogul's Bank Accounts 'The main problem here is that, based on information in the sealed Pretrial Service Reports, the proffered funds are only a fraction of defendant's net worth,' Judge Fitzgerald wrote in his five-page order. He said Banks is facing a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole if convicted, and such a possibility 'would make any innocent defendant consider flight as the rational alternative.' The judge also said that while he accepted the defense claim that Banks has 'business and spiritual reasons to travel to the Middle East,' he saw no evidence explaining exactly why Banks bought tickets to Dubai shortly after other defendants were arrested in the case. 'The court finds that defendant did attempt to flee abroad,' the judge wrote. At a hearing last week, Judge Fitzgerald said the new proposal, which included an additional $3 million from the Chicago rapper's own coffers, was 'going in the right direction,' but it still wasn't enough to satisfy him. The judge said he was looking for even more of the musician's net worth on the line, possibly in the form of Banks' 'intellectual property rights in all of the music.' He said with the 'entirety of his net worth' at stake, Banks would be less likely to flee because it would leave his wife, mother, and children 'impoverished.' Banks, 32, has pleaded not guilty to charges he hired a group of 'hitmen' to travel to Los Angeles and commit an execution-style murder in broad daylight on Aug. 19, 2022. Federal prosecutors allege the intended target of the purported murder-for-hire scheme was Tyquian Terrel Bowman, also known as Quando Rondo. They allege Banks believed Bowman was involved in the death of his friend and protégé Dayvon 'King Von' Bennett. Prosecutors claim the alleged hitmen stalked Bennett in Los Angeles and ambushed him at a gas station near the Beverly Center shopping mall, firing at least 18 rounds from multiple guns, including a machine gun. Bowman's cousin, Saviay'a Robinson, was struck and killed as he traveled with Bowman. Banks vehemently denies the allegations and has been in custody since his arrest last October. When the the 'All My Life' rapper appeared in a federal courtroom in downtown Los Angeles on June 2, he couldn't stop smiling at the group of more than two dozen supporters, including his parents, in the audience. His wife, India Royale, sat the front row. Judge Fitzgerald listened as Banks' lawyer Christy O'Connor argued that the defense deserved access to the secret grand jury testimony that led to the inclusion of some of Banks' lyrics in his initial indictment in the case. Prosecutors initially alleged that Bank's song 'Wonderful Wayne & Jackie Boy,' which was released in December 2022, referenced Banks' alleged revenge on Bowman. In the song, Banks raps, 'Look on the news and see your son, You screamin', 'No, no.'' Prosecutors claimed it was a reference to Bowman seeing Robinson's dead body. At a prior bond hearing on Dec. 12, 2024, defense lawyer Drew Findling argued that the song was recorded months before the shooting. He offered a sworn declaration from the song's producer, Justin Gibson, supporting the point. 'They didn't do their homework. That's bias that impeaches everybody,' O'Connor argued, referring to the prosecution. She said the inclusion of the lyrics in the prior indictment meant 'there was false evidence or testimony presented to the grand jury.' She said it 'undermined the credibility of the whole case.' (The lyrics were stripped from the second superseding indictment filed last month.) Findling also addressed the court last week, saying that the multiple 'tranches of discovery' already handed over in the case failed to corroborate prosecutors' claim that Banks orchestrated the murder-for-hire plot. He said the government seemed to be relying on a single text that Banks sent to an alleged co-conspirator on Aug. 18, 2022, the day before the shooting, in which he said: 'Don't book no flights under no names involved wit me.' Findling said the text was vague and taken out of context. Assistant U.S. Attorney Ian Yanniello countered that the government has more evidence, but it was not yet required to turn it over. He cited the trial date set for October. Judge Fitzgerald said it was possible that the assailants involved in the shooting simply wanted 'to prove themselves' to Banks. 'While it's possible, perhaps plausible, that the defendant was pulling strings in an abstract manner, at some point, there has to be proof,' the judge said during the hearing. 'Yes, it might be plausible that Mr. Banks was orchestrating all of this, but at the same time, it might be plausible that there were hot-headed people who wanted to impress him. At some point, you've got to come forward with specifics and not just generalities.' Before the hearing ended, Robinson's mother, Andrea Robinson, addressed the court. She said she flew in from Savannah, Georgia, to deliver her emotional message about the death of her only child. 'I never in a million years thought I'd lose my baby,' Robinson's mother said through tears. 'He had a family. He has a mother. He has three kids. They will never know their dad. … It hurts so bad that I can't pick up the phone and call him.' Banks' trial is set to begin Oct. 14. In a filing last week, prosecutors confirmed they would not be seeking the death penalty against any defendants in the case.
