A Philadelphia Police officer was shot and injured in Kensington on Wednesday morning. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross identified him as 31-year-old Officer Paul Sulock. It happened near G and Madison Streets just after 11 a.m. Sulock and his partner, both in uniform on routine patrol, happened to interrupt a confrontation between to men. The men were hiding behind cars across the street from one another. One of the men was armed and shot, hitting Sulock in the thigh. Despite being wounded, Officer Sulock chased down and caught one of the suspects. The other suspect is also in custody. Sulock is a 10-year-veteran of the force and is a father of four. He was taken to Temple Hospital in stable condition. Ross said that he is in 'good spirits' and 'is going to be OK.'

A man has been indicted on vehicular homicide charges following a deadly head on collision this past July in Delaware that killed a father and his four daughters. 45-year-old Alvin Hubbard III of East New Market, Maryland was indicted by a grand jury Monday on five counts of second-degree vehicular homicide, three counts of vehicular assault and other offenses. It happened on July 6th about 4 p.m. along Rt 1. in Townsend. Hubbard drove his truck across the median into oncoming traffic. He hit a passenger vehicle and then was hit by the minivan carrying the family. Drugs and alcohol were not a factor. "The indictment alleges that Hubbard operated his truck in a criminally negligent manner when he exited his lane of travel, crossed the center median between a multi-lane highway, and crashed into oncoming traffic," the Delaware Attorney General's Office said in a statement.
