Bristol Busing Issues, Frankford Police Pursuit, Philadelphia Rec Center Shooting

Facing a $12 million deficit, the Bristol Township School District cut where it could, taking aim at transportation and cutting more than $2 million out of its bus service.
Complaints of overcrowding and dangerous conditions on school buses have since spread like wildfire.
On Facebook, there are two different parent groups that have formed, and complaints about busing are common.
The school board argues cuts to transportation are a better alternative to cuts to education services.

Police were on the scene in the Frankford section of the city last night after a lengthy police pursuit.
The incident began on I-95 near Bensalem, where two men with firearms were spotted inside a red Durango.
The Police pursuit ended outside a home on Orchard Street where they set up a barricade, and were able to apprehend both suspects.

A teenager is dead after being shot at a Philadelphia rec center last night.
The 18-year-old victim was shot once in the chest in the playground area of the Cecil B. Moore Rec Center.
Police say his body was just a few feet from the playground where children were playing at the time.
Detectives are currently investigating the incident.
