Man hospitalized after North Phila. shooting

A 31-year-old man who was shot seven times in North Philadelphia Sunday night survived to be hospitalized in stable condition, police said.

The man, whose name was withheld, was outside a house in the 2200 block of Ingersoll Street when he was shot at 8:30 p.m., Officer Jillian Russell, a police spokeswoman, said.

Although bullets struck the man's upper torso, back, face, neck, and a leg, his condition was stable enough after initial treatment at St. Joseph's Hospital for him to be taken to Temple University Hospital for more extensive treatment, Russell said.

No one has been arrested in the shooting. - Derrick Nunnally
