Philadelphia Police are now searching for numerous teenagers after a group of around 100 teens went around Center City robbing and hurting some people on Saturday night. Police say that a group of teens that were leaving Coda, a Walnut Street club that hosts an under 21 club setting, started their rampage heading south on 18th Streets. Surveillance footage shows the group of teens attacking two pizza delivery men at their shop on South and 18th Streets. Both men were severely injured in the attack. A group then split up and began harassing pedestrians farther on Walnut Street, while others split up and headed down to South Street. Police say the teens started hitting people, grabbing their phones and other outlandish behavior. SEPTA police made several arrests in Center City including a 14-year-old and a 16-year-old. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross stated that the department is going to crack down on teen flash mobs like this and that more arrests are going to be made in this case.

Philadelphia Police have arrested a suspect responsible for the deadly stabbing of an 80-year-old man in Port Richmond. 21-year-old Patricia Diocson, the granddaughter of the victim 80-year-old Robert Girard, was arrested for the murder. Officials say that Diocson confessed to the murder, saying she did it because Girard was mean to her. She reportedly stabbed her grandfather over 40 times. Diocson lived in the home with her grandfather located on the 2500 block of E. Lehigh Avenue in Port Richmond. She originally told police that she came home and found her grandfather naked in a pool of blood on the floor of their kitchen. No signs of forced entry were found at the scene. Diocson is now being charged with murder and possession of an instrument of crime.

Delaware Police have arrested a daycare worker after she was caught on video reportedly abusing the children in her care. 46-year-old Angela Flewelling has been placed into police custody after video showed her "physically dragging and kicking the children." Police were called to investigate at the unit block of Margaretta Drive where police say the Primary Colors Family Daycare was located. Flewelling has now been charged with child abuse. Police have not stated whether or not any of the children suffered injuries or how long the abuse was occurring. Flewelling is being held at Baylor Women's Correctional Institution after she failed to post her $7500 bail.
