PHILADELPHIA — Four Overbrook High School students were shot Wednesday morning near the school, just after they were dismissed early for the Thanksgiving holiday.
“Following early dismissal, four students were outside of a store a block away from the school when a gunman opened fire. PPD arrived and is leading investigation. As of now, it appears that all of the students involved sustained non-life threatening injuries,” said School District of Philadelphia spokesperson Marissa Orbanek.
The shooting occurred at about 11:30 a.m. near W. 60th Street and N. Columbia Avenue. Overbrook High School dismissed three hours early in observance of the holiday.
