Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney issued a statement following the mass shooting reading in part:The events that transpired last evening on South Street are beyond devastating. Once again, we see lives lost and people injured in yet another horrendous, brazen and despicable act of gun violence. Our city and country have experienced a steep rise in gun violence over the past few years.
Maureen Long spent 50 years working in healthcare before retiring, she says the violence problem across the nation is a public health emergency and is “not simply crime.” “Over the last 10 years I characterize it as a boardwalk for underage drinkers and I don’t come out at night, mostly because of my age, most neighborhood folks don’t. They come from other parts of the city, young, I know a lot of stuff happens here late on Friday or Saturday nights when the weather is good. I’ve never seen anything like this, not a mass shooting.”
“It’s gotten more and more frequent as time has gone on,” the neighbor said. “I just don’t feel safe going out at night in this area. I did in the beginning. I used to walk down there all the time at night, but I don’t feel safe doing that [now].”
