Condolences to the officers family

I hope all these commenters keep this same energy now that they see what the suspect actually looks like and that he is not from Philly

And y’all better PLASTER!! His face all over the NEWS!! Because we ALL KNOW IF HE WAS BLACK THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT YOU WOULD DO.

Oops

You are part of the problem. You sit by and say nothing.

It's a good thing GovernorShapiro won't execute a murderer in this state. Criminal might have gotten worried for a moment if caught. Then again DA_LarryKrasner would be required to do his job and we know that won't happen. He'll be out to kill again tomorrow.

🙏💙

These criminals do what & when they want in this city the punishment is lenient of any conviction the mayor city council don't do nothing bout it but let a ppd officer get shot the suspect is caught in minutes

And then casually robs this person of their car keys at gunpoint. Watch the ambulance drive right by

If you shoot at or kill an officer should be the dearth penalty

I was away for the evening and I just now read this. I am so very upset and disgusted by what happened and by what is happening all over our city. Most of these violent people should have been in jail if we had only not been afraid to identify and punish them for other crimes.

Pull your kids out. Fuck this shit. City is doomed. 29 years there was too many. Arm your citizen. Fight back.

Temple alumn here: please somebody keep me posted on any gofundme for the guy's family. they kept me alive while I got educated.

🪦

Once again DA_LarryKrasner soft approach on crime has made criminals believe its ok to murder law enforcement officers. Senseless shameful. Prayers for the officer family 🙏

declare martial law, Shut the whole city down for one year and clean it out.

Praying for the family and friends We need more LOVE ❤️

City is a disaster/ hello Mr mayor are you there.

so sad, rip. when will the democrat cities wake up and clean out the streets? you can’t vote for Fetterman and Biden and complain about these things because it’s not on their agenda to fix whatsoever lol

Praying 🙏🏾 for the family

They gonna respond by taking out three of you in the coming weeks …

Thank the Democrat leaders.

So sad.

The mayor has his blood on his hands. Time to be a man!!

The mayor has blood on his hands… protect the blue !!!

Condolences to the family and friends of this Brave Officer 🙏

As a proud Temple grad and parent of a college freshman I am happy he is at Stockton University .

WHY ARE YOU NOT QUESTIONING THE BUREAUCRATS WHO ARE ALLOWING THIS TO GO ON YOU AND THE REST OF THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IN THE CITY HAVE BLOOD IN YOUR HANDS. SILENCEISVIOLENCE

God bless the officers family and temple police. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

The handwringing, ineffective moneypit 'community programs,' and 'thoughts & prayers' will continue for years to come if laws aren't enforced or enacted that change this scenario. Sure, all the social ills that produce violent young men should be addressed, too...one day

GLFOP

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 to this young officer and his family

I sure hope Philly wakes up and votes for someone tough on criminals and keeps these guys locked up.

this shit is sad and this is in my city

Hey PhillyMayor you tired of this shit yet? The amount of blood in your hands is too much to imagine. Easily has to go down as the worst Mayor in Philadelphia history. Stay woke though

Keep voting for the D next to the politicians names if you like this happening

BLACK Male ?
