Daily News | 11-year-old shot in West Philadelphia late Wednesday night
An 11-year-old girl and a man were struck during a shootout in West Philadelphia late Wednesday night.
“We of course believe that since she’s only 11 years old, she was struck by stray gunfire,” Chief Inspector Scott Small told reporters.Police said the girl is in stable condition at a hospital, and that her family was able to take cover in a corner store at the time of the shooting.A month after a 12-year-old was killed, city leaders are absent. And children on the block are too afraid to play.
It is unclear if the man was a bystander or an intended target, say police, who are currently questioning witnesses.
