For Philly trauma physicians, the South Street shooting was far from the first time they've had to treat multiple victims at once

PHILADELPHIA — As one shooting victim — then another, and another — was rushed on Saturday night to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, the Philadelphia trauma hospital that sits closest to the South Street shooting, emergency responders started to worry about reaching capacity.

"Be advised — anyone with shooting victims, do not send them to Jefferson, we already have seven victims at Jefferson," an officer said over the police radio.

But when Lars Ola Sjoholm, Temple University Hospital's chief of trauma and surgical and critical care, heard of the shooting on South Street Saturday night, his first thought was one of resignation.
