UPDATE: More details released about the unruly crowd of juveniles that swarmed Center City on Wednesday night
Philadelphia police inspector Ray Evers provides an update after officers broke up a crowd of hundreds of juveniles on Wednesday night.A Philadelphia police officer was injured and four teenagers were cited for disorderly conduct after a crowd of hundreds of juveniles swarmed Center City on Wednesday night.
Then, around 7 p.m., a 13-year-old male was seen with a pistol. The teen was chased down and stopped, and Evers said that the pistol turned out to be an Airsoft gun. "Our belief is that these juveniles were not here to go to the movies or go to the mall. They were here to be disorderly," Evers said. That officer will be out for approximately eight to 12 months for full knee reconstruction, Evers said."This is a parental issue," Evers said. "We have 170 rec centers in the city, we have 26 PAL centers in the city, and we have numerous sports leagues and church groups in the city. This is what the kids should be doing. This is a parental issue. This is not a police issue, this is not a city issue. The parents should be watching their kids, what they're doing.
