The two suspects involved in an incident on Wednesday morning, 11/7, that left a Philadelphia police officer shot have been identified and charged. Officer Paul Sulock and his partner were on patrol when they came upon the two suspects on G Street in Kensington. They were taking cover behind cars across the street from one another and one had a gun. The officers stepped in to stop the stand off. However, Sulock got shot in the leg. He was still able to chase down and apprehend one of the men. 29-year-old Jerome Hill is accused of actually shooting the officer. District Attorney Larry Krasner announced that he is charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault on law enforcement and other offenses. He is being held on $3.3 million bail. 18-year-old James Gauthney is charged with hindering apprehension and obstruction of justice. The DA is seeking $1 million bail. More charges could be filed. Officer Sulock left Temple University Hospital on Thursday surrounded by family and greeted by collegues.

Police are investigating after a 2-year-old boy was found dead in a lake in Southampton, Burlington County. The boy's mother had called police and reported him missing at around 11 a.m. Friday, 11/9. New Jersey state police responded to the Mobile Estates of Southampton on James Avenue. After searching, 2-year-old Adam Reed's body was found in a lake just 200 yards from his home. State troopers pulled him out and tried to perform CPR, but it was too late. Investigators are trying to look for surveillance cameras to determine how Adam got to the lake from his home. His exact cause of death has not yet been determined. There are no charges at this time.

A man has died after being struck twice by two separate hit-and-run drivers in the Tacony section on Friday night, 11/9.
