3 Killed and 9 Injured in South Philadelphia Shooting
A shooting in South Philadelphia left three people dead and nine others wounded early Monday, the police said, capping a violent Fourth of July weekend in the city that included more than a dozen shootings and stabbings. Three men, ages 19, 23 and 24, died in the shooting on South 27th Street in the Grays Ferry neighborhood just before 1 a.m., the police said. Two minors, a 15-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy, were among the wounded. Most of those injured had been shot in the arms or legs, but a 19-year-old man sustained two gunshot wounds to the head and was in critical condition, the authorities said. Commissioner Kevin Bethel of the Philadelphia Police Department told reporters that 'numerous rounds were shot' and that he expected a lengthy investigation. The police did not release any information about potential suspects in the shooting. Several dozen people had been congregating throughout the holiday weekend in the area where the shooting took place, Commissioner Bethel said. He said that officers had been called several times to the area for complaints about loud music and disturbances, and that officers were responding to a nearby incident when they heard gunshots around 1 a.m. 'I know this is going to be a very difficult weekend,' he said. 'Folks are going to wake up and hear about a lot of the incidents that happened over the weekend.' Early Saturday morning, eight people were wounded in a shooting at 7 Elements, a South Philadelphia nightclub, that stemmed from an argument, the police said. The city has since closed the nightclub. On Thursday, a 15-year-old boy was found shot and killed in a Northeast Philadelphia driveway. On Sunday, a 26-year-old man was shot and killed in North Philadelphia. Despite the deadly weekend, Philadelphia has made progress recently in reducing deadly violence. The police reported 120 homicides in 2025 through Sunday, down 10 percent from the same period last year. The city had 269 homicides in 2024, less than half the number from 2021 and the lowest rate since 2014.
