Police have now arrested a man who has been accused of 15 burglaries that have happened in Chester and Montgomery Counties. The suspect is James Murray who police say has been robbing homes since July. After he was involved in a failed robbery, Police started to keep an eye on Murray. Police caught him robbing a neighbor's house in Limerick, and took him into custody. Murray is currently behind bars in Montgomery County Correctional Facility.

Police are now investigating after a shooting occurred on Wednesday night in the Overbrook section of Philadelphia during a Craigslist transaction. The victim is 22-year-old Shane Lyle who met up with a man from Craigslist who said he was selling an iPhone 6s. The two met at a Rite Aid Parking lot on Lebanon Avenue and North 63rd Street in Overbrook. When Lyle went to approach the man at his car, the man pulled out a gun and demanded money. After a short altercation Lyle was shot in the leg. He was later taken to the hospital and treated. Police are still searching for the suspect.

Philadelphia Police are investigating after two officers shot a man who refused to put down his gun in the Mayfair section of Philadelphia. The incident happened on the 6300 block of Carlton Street. The officers arrived to find 55-year-old Timothy McShane at the front door of the house, holding a rifle. Officers asked McShane to put down his rifle, but when he refused, officers shot him, wounding his arm. He was taken to Aria-Torresdale Hospital where he is listed in stable condition. McShane is now facing many charges including aggravated and simple assault.
