Overview

  • Two victims, including a security guard struck in the face and a woman shot in the back, remain in critical condition but all 11 wounded patrons are expected to survive.
  • Investigators collected shell casings from the bar’s second floor, stairway and adjacent parking lot to reconstruct shooting trajectories.
  • Authorities have not yet determined how many individuals opened fire or where shots originated within the venue.
  • No arrests have been made and police are urging anyone with information to call 215-686-TIPS or submit an anonymous tip online.
  • Inspector D. F. Pace said the lounge should not have been operating at that hour, intensifying scrutiny of late-night venue compliance.
