PHILADELPHIA -- Police say a child in a school playground was shot in the face and a school crossing guard was wounded in the foot by gunfire Wednesday morning in North Philadelphia.


The shooting happened just after 8:30 a.m. in the area of 23rd and Cambria streets.

Police say two men were shooting each other, and the gunfire hit the child and wounded the crossing guard in the foot.

The child has been taken to Temple University Hospital in critical condition. No word yet on the crossing guard's condition.

The names of the victims have not yet been released.

Police at the scene say they are looking for a silver Jeep seen fleeing the area after the shootout.

Interesting, no mention of the jeep being an SUV. I wonder how long before we see SUV mentioned in the news. And they will probably spin it like this.

" SUV shoots child and crossing guard outside of school."
