Twelve police officers were shot, five were killed by snipers at a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas yesterday. The coordinated attack from elevated positions involved multiple shooters. Three shooters are in custody and one was killed by police. Here in Philadelphia, police are preparing for a similar demonstration and protest tonight.

The 2017 NFL Draft is coming to Philadelphia. That's according to Rep. Bob Brady who says Mayor Jim Kenney called him and said the city has agreed to host the annual draft next year. Philadelphia has to raise $5 million to pay for it. Part of the festivities will include a large outdoor stage on the Ben Franklin Parkway.

Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson of the Roots blasted Mayor Jim Kenney on Facebook after being snubbed at the July 4th concert on the Parkway. The Roots headlined the event every year since 2009 and were a known favorite of former Mayor Michael Nutter. The Kenney administration left the performer booking up to Live Nation this year.
