At least six police officers on Wednesday afternoon were shot in Philadelphia’s Nicetown-Tioga section.
The officers were taken to Temple University Hospital in an unknown condition.
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
