Gunman Gets Out of Car, Shoots 3 People in Philadelphia

A gunman got out of car then shot three people in the Olney section of Philadelphia late Sunday night.

Two men and a woman were on the 5900 block of North 2nd Street shortly after 10 when a gray Dodge Charger stopped in the middle of the street. A gunman then got out of the vehicle and fired at least 11 shots.

Gunfire struck a 26-year-old man in the lower back, a 22-year-old man in the arm and a 21-year-old woman in the leg, said Philadelphia Police.

Two of the victims were transported by police to Einstein Hospital while the third got there without assistance. Police said all three should be OK.

Detectives told NBC10 they are unsure if any of the victims were the gunman's intended target. No arrests have been made. Police continued to investigate into early Monday.
