There are numerous reports of an "active shooter" in the Nicetown neighborhood of Philadelphia.
Several police officer have been injured. It is unclear, at this time, how many other people have been shot or killed.
We do not know if this was an ambush or something else.
The Nicetown neighborhood is in urban decay with many abandoned buildings, according to wikipedia.
The population is predominantly black and Hispanic, about 85% black and 7% hispanic, with a sprinkling of others.
If it’s one of the natives targeting Cops will they even say so?

Wondering if this shooter will be Red Flagged?
Philadelphia is just northeast Baltimore.
Doesn’t sound like a very Nicetown.
Is this shooting in addition to or the same as shooting reported earlier and still on a live thread?
It’s being covered live. Did you think there would be some kind of news blackout?

Latest: six officers shot, none with “life threatening injuries”, which does not mean much.
Its a Narco Mall!
If the deep state determines that it will take 20 mass casualty incidents a day to inflame public opinion enough to get rid of the Second, we’ll get 20 mass casualty incidents a day.
Exactly what my friend and I just said today!
From Fox:
At least six Philadelphia police officers were wounded, at least one reportedly grazed in the head, in an ongoing shootout in the city’s Nicetown neighborhood on Wednesday afternoon that has been unfolding for almost two hours.
Three officers were rushed to Temple University Hospital, officials told Fox 29.
Three other officers were taken to Einstein Hospital, at least one of them was shot in the arm. All six officers are in stable condition and are being treated for non-life threatening injuries.
Two other officers, including a police sergeant, were injured in an accident related to the emergency response and are being treated for non-life threatening injuries.
High-ranking police officials said that two officers with the Narcotics Strike Force were serving a warrant at a multifamily home when a shooter opened fire at the home. The two officers are barricaded in separate rooms with as many as four suspects in what may be a drug-related offense. At least one suspect is actively shooting, firing up a stairwell from a lower level in the building or potentially moving up and down the stairwell while doing so. One officer is barricaded in a bedroom with two suspects while another is in a bathroom with another suspect.
Hostage negotiators, as well as the SWAT team, is on the scene and will try to enter the building as soon as they are able to.
per Tweets, Kamala is on TV already blabbing politically about it. Really hope some sticks something in her piehole.
Just heard off the live Philadelphia feed:
Police were serving a warrant.
Suspect appears to be a single male.
It is unknown if there are any other people in the building with the suspect.
It appears this was not a rampage shooting; but a warrant service gone south.
We need to Outlaw Drugs! (and Drug Dealers)
Or put up Drug Free Zone signs or SOMETHING!
OMG DO SOMETHING GOVERNMENT!
