I imagine the ONLY reason this is getting aired is because it was in the historic district
Philly murders are well over one a day now. The papers wring their hands and have no clue why. First off they abandoned scientific policing which had crime under control. Next try inneffective long time one party hack control of everything. Then there is an economy destroyed by left wing high taxes and wasteful liberal agenda.
That's part of it, mainly it's because the vast majority of murders (I can't speak for all cities, but certainly in Philadelphia) are dirt-bags killing other vermin in horrible neighborhoods that no decent person would ever set foot in.
To have a murder occur in a heavily trafficked area, frequented by the civilized is pretty unusual.
