A night of celebration and family fun on South Street came to an abrupt end Saturday as chaos quickly unfolded and shots rang just out moments later.
Just a block away on 7th Street, police say a female passenger of an open-air vehicle got into a physical fight with one of the vendors just before 11 p.m.
They were separated by a security officer, who was struck in the leg and stomach when the driver fired two shots. The officer's condition is unknown at this time.Captain Ginaldi also said Philadelphia officers were responding to one incident on 13th and Lombard, and another near Second Street as the chaotic scenes erupted further up on South Street.
