Two men were wounded when an argument in the bleachers of a North Philadelphia youth football field escalated into gunfire as kids practiced nearby, police said.
The shooting as a community football team and the lacrosse team from St. Joseph’s Preparatory Academy were practicing on the field at 11th Street and Cecil B. Moore Avenue around 6 p.m. Friday, Philadelphia Police Department Capt. John Walker said.
“When shots are fired like this, it shatters all the peace and quiet in this neighborhoods and creates a problem. Parents are obviously scared here,” Walker said. The gunfire rang out when two men began arguing in the bleachers, the captain said. The shooter began walking away but then pulled out a gun and fired at the man with whom he was arguing, as well as the group of men around him, Walker said.
