Police say four teenagers, ages 13, 14, 15, and 16, are in critical but stable condition after they were shot in North Philadelphia early Thursday morning. This shooting came just a few hours after another quadruple shooting in West Philadelphia.
Authorities say all of the teenagers are in critical but stable condition and they are expected to be okay.
Investigators say they believe all four of the victims were standing near the home where two of the teens live. "I’m just so lost for words right now," a mother of one of the victims stated. She said her 15-year-old son was outside in the courtyard of their community with his best friend and other teens when the shooting began.
"I cried when I heard about them getting shot," neighbor and family friend Turon Whitepool said. "That really hurt my heart and I’m tired of this stuff that’s going on, this shooting stuff, especially with these kids."
