Man wounded in Center City shooting
The victim is in stable condition at Jefferson University Hospital after the early-morning shooting.
A man was shot and wounded early Thursday in front of the Wells Fargo Building near City Hall, police said.
Police said at least three rounds were fired about 2:50 a.m. on the 100 block of South Broad Street. The 23-year-old victim, whose name was not released, was reported in stable condition at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital with a bullet wound to his right arm, police said.
Chief Inspector Scott Small said witnesses provided a good description of the suspect and investigators would check the numerous surveillance cameras in the area.
The victim told police he was walking on Broad Street, heard a bang, and felt a burning in his right arm before running. He said he did not see who shot him, police said.
The suspect fled east on Walnut Street, Small said. Police have not said if investigators have established a possible motive.
