Philadelphia Police are now searching for two suspects who are wanted in connection with a shooting that took place in the Kensington section of Philadelphia. The shooting took place on the 2900 block of Rosehill Street at around 7:30 pm on Wednesday. Police arrived on the scene and found a 29-year-old man who was reportedly shot in the leg by two men in a car. The man was rushed to Temple University and is listed in stable condition. Police found the suspects' car and guns on the 3000 block of Collins Street, but the suspects had fled the scene before hand.

New Jersey Police are now investigating after a Gloucester County student reportedly hit a classmate over the head multiple times with a five pound weight during a fight that occurred. The incident took place on Tuesday at Deptford High School. So far the school has not reported on what led to the altercation, but they have stated that the student is at his home recovering from the injuries he sustained. Police are continuing their investigation.

A Delaware County woman is now being accused of selling nearly a dozen illegal guns in the area. The suspect, 35-year-old Vicki Towns-Perez, has been charged with being a straw purchaser, which is what officials call the first part in the criminal supply chain. Police say that Perez purchased nine handguns legally. All of the guns were then illegally sold and ended up on the street. Five of the hand guns were recovered at crime scenes throughout the area. If Perez is found guilty, she could face five to ten years in a state penitentiary.
