Riots Erupt in Philadelphia Following Police Shooting

A black man reportedly armed with a knife was fatally shot by police in Philadelphia Monday night.

Philadelphia Police Department representatives said that 27-year-old Walter Wallace refused to follow two officers’ orders to drop his weapon as they approached. The department’s explanation wasn’t sufficient for the hundreds of Philadelphians who took the streets.

More than thirty members of the PPD have been injured since — including one sergeant hit by a pickup truck. Police have arrested more than thirty rioters, among them five juveniles.
