I literally just watched one cop get shot in the head & one shot in the arm live on Philly news channels & people still don’t want to support the police force. Hope everyone gets out of this situation safely

Update: I’m on the scene now. 6th Officer has been injured. News crews are working together and moving our choppers from the scene as to not give the shooter(s) an opportunity to know where tactical units are positioned. Frequent gunshots continue. @CBSPhilly pic.twitter.com/eU969d0WfE
