Published September 24, 2022A 2-year-old boy is recovering after police say he was shot inside a Brewerytown home Saturday night.
Officers from the Philadelphia Police Department were called to a property on the 2200 block of 20th Street just after 8:30 p.m. for reports of a shooting. The toddler, who was shot at least once in the back, was driven by his mother to Temple University where he was listed in critical condition. "[It's] just another tragic situation where you have, again, a kid that should not have to worry about this," First Dept. Police Commissioner John Stanford told NBC10."A 2-year-old should just be able to play and live and be free, and not have to worry about fighting for their lives as a result of a gunshot wound. It's just disheartening."
