One person is dead and another injured after a double shooting outside a Wawa in South Philadelphia on Friday night, 10/1.

No fans were allowed at Friday night's, 10/1, football game at Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High School in Upper Darby against Neumann-Goretti. School officials cited recent incidents at other sporting events and concerning social media posts in making the decision. They hoped to stave off any altercations. Parents, students, and community members were not allowed to attend.

Sports
The Philadelphia 76ers withheld $8.25 million from Ben Simmons that he was due to be paid on Friday, 10/1. That is roughly 25% of his annual salary. The money was placed in an escrow account. Any additional fines that Simmons accrues will be deducted from that account. Simmons has made it clear that he does not want to play for the Sixers and does not intend to report. Training camp began this past week and he did not show. The first pre-season game is Monday, October 4. He would be fined his game salary of $227,000 for each game he does not come to play.
