PHILADELPHIA — The Sharon Hill Borough Council voted Thursday night to fire the three police officers charged with shooting and killing 8-year-old Fanta Bility at a football game in August.
The vote came during a standing room-only meeting in which some expressed support for the officers, while others voiced their outrage and called for reforms.
The measures to fire the officers were considered individually by the council, and each one passed on a 6-1 vote. Council member Sandra Holcombe was the lone dissenter.
