A man was shot in the head in Philadelphia's Kensington section early Wednesday morning, leaving him in critical but stable condition as investigators work, with no public word on who pulled the trigger. Police responded to the scene, and hours later, there was still no word on a suspect.
Officers responded to the scene at Amber Street and East Victoria Street around 6:30 a.m. Wednesday, according to 6abc Philadelphia. The victim was rushed to the hospital, where he is said to be in critical but stable condition, the station reported.
As of the report, there had been no word on who is responsible for the shooting. No further details about a motive or suspect description have been released.
Another Shooting Also Hit Kensington In August
In a different incident in the same neighborhood, a man died after being shot multiple times early Sunday, according to NBC Philadelphia. That victim was transported to Temple University Hospital, where he died at 5:36 a.m., officials told the station.
Kensington residents are left with two separate, unresolved shootings months apart, and no public account yet of what led to either one. Police have not released additional information on the Wednesday case, and this story will be updated as more details become available.
