Friday night and early Saturday morning was another violent one in Philadelphia. Police are investigating four shootings that sent 5 people to the hospital. The first attack came last night around 5:30 in East Falls. Two men, 34 and 28, were approached be a man on foot and shot multiple times in the legs. No suspect or motive is known. At 10:30 a 27-year-old man was shot in the stomach by a 20-year-old man outside his home in Southwest Philadelphia. Another man, 25, had been shot in the back by an unknown assailant also in Southwest Philly. Finally, and 39 -year-old woman was shot in her thigh and buttocks in Hunting Park by an unknown attacker.

It's graduation time around the areas, with many high schools and grade school holding their ceremonies and baccalaureates this weekend and next. Congratulations to all who have earned your diplomas! With the graduations and school closings come a seemingly endless number of parties that accompany them. There are just some very simple reminders so everyone stays safe. First, kids are out of school, be careful driving and watch for them in the streets. Second is for those going on Senior Week or to parties, it's not fun if you can't remember it or get hurt doing it, best to stay away. For the adults, same advice, we are proud of our graduates, but should show example and don't drink and drive after a party.
