Bucks County Police are now searching for a man who is wanted for shooting at parked cars in Quakertown. Police have identified the suspect as 32-year-old Brandon Grosso. The incident took place at the Walmart parking lot in Quakertown. Police say that this is not the first incident that Grosso has been involved in at the Walmart. Investigators have stated that he was involved in a confrontation with a man where he ended up shooting at the victim's vehicle. Police are now continuing their search for the man and they say he is considered armed and dangerous.

The Philadelphia City Council has now approved the plan to rename a portion of Broad Street to Boyz II Men Boulevard. The street name would be in effect between Christian and Carpenter Street, and would be named to honor members and Philly natives Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman. All three members attended Philadelphia High School for the Creative Arts, which resides on the stretch of Broad Street that is going to be renamed.

The Pennsylvania auditor general has now begun a review of a $10 million grant that was given for last summer's Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia. Officials are hoping that the audit can see if the state funds paid for almost $1 million in bonuses for the staff members at the convention. The largest bonus known that was given was $310,000, which was given to the host committee executive director Kevin Washo. Officials say that there is an important document that shows the committee spent the entire $10 million of the grant money, and the auditors will be looking for receipts to confirm the document. Officials say that the audit should be complete by July.
