Eight high school students were shot over 30 times near a Philadelphia bus station on Wednesday. The shooting took place when three masked males exited a dark blue Hyundai Sonata and opened fire at the teens near a SEPTA bus stop, as reported by the Philadelphia Police Department. Surveillance footage captured the males driving away from the scene after the shooting, and the alleged shooters are currently at large.
During a press conference, Philadelphia Police Deputy Commissioner of Investigations revealed that a fourth individual was in the car during the incident. The car, which had been reported stolen, was recovered by highway patrol individuals later that night. The victims, including a 15-year-old girl and seven teenage boys aged 15 to 17, were swiftly taken to local hospitals. One 17-year-old male, shot nine times, remains in critical condition.
