Two men arguing led to gunfire in the early morning hours of Sunday, outside of a South Philadelphia movie theatre. The shooting took place at around 1 am on Sunday outside of the United Artist Riverview Plaza Stadium located on the 1400 block of South Christopher Columbus Boulevard. Police say the men arrived Warmdaddy's restaurant, next door to the theatre, they both pulled guns out at each other and opened fire. One of the men was critically injured and taken to Jefferson University Hospital, the other man was taken in for questioning by police. Investigators say that one of the men had a license to carry a gun the other did not. No charges have been filed as of yet.

The southbound lanes of 1-95 in South Philadelphia had to be shut down after a two-vehicle crash occurred early Sunday morning. The crash happened just before 5 am near the Broad Street exit. One of a the victims, a 30-year-old man, was ejected from the vehicle during the crash. Two other victims were injured in the crash, all three victims were taken to a local hospital. The lanes were re-opened at around 9 am after the investigation was cleared.

The Philadelphia Eagles are now headed to Super Bowl LII. After a huge 38-7 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night, the Eagles clinched the NFC Championship and are heading to the big game in two weeks. Quarterback Nick Foles had a stellar game on Sunday throwing for 352 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Eagles defense put on an amazing show as well. Cornerback Patrick Robinson had a spectacular 50-yard interception return for a touchdown. The Eagles will face the New England Patriots on Sunday February 4th. This is the Eagles' first Super Bowl appearance since 2005, where they faced the Patriots as well. Eagles team owner Jeffery Lurie stated "I'm so proud of our players, the resilience this group of men has is unequaled."
