Baby Ambushed in Daylight: Philly Cops Hunt for Female Shooter
In a horrifying incident in the Holmesburg area of Philadelphia, an unsuspecting baby was shot as a female suspect opened fire on a city street in the middle of the day. The Philadelphia Police Department released chilling footage of the event on Friday, shedding light on the shocking occurrence.
Around 6 p.m. last Thursday, on the 4000 block of Meridian Street, a young couple found themselves under attack while out for a stroll with their 7-month-old son. The family was suddenly confronted by a woman who, without warning, started shooting.
In the video, the suspect can be seen discharging at least three rounds of ammunition. She shoots twice at one parent, then turns her gun on the other before calmly walking away. In the aftermath, the parents are seen scrambling to safety, leaving the scene in a panic.
“Baby!” the mother is heard yelling in the clip. The suspect retorts with a derogatory term, but the majority of their exchange is muffled in the recording.
Tragically, the innocent child was caught in the crossfire, with one bullet striking his leg. The baby was initially taken to a nearby hospital in a private vehicle, but later transferred by the police to a different facility. As of Friday morning, the child’s condition has been reported as stable.
In the wake of the horrific incident, law enforcement officers faced some difficulty in locating the parents. The couple had seemingly vanished from the area by the time the police arrived on the scene. After an hour-long search, they were eventually found a few blocks from the site of the shooting, as per NBC Philadelphia.
In the ongoing investigation, police are reaching out to the public for help in identifying the female suspect. The description released by the authorities reads, “Black female, heavy build, long dreadlocks, black sweatshirt with large front graphic, light blue jeans, black shoes with white soles.”

A tragic incident in Michigan has resulted in a teenage boy facing severe charges after allegedly shooting another teen and fatally wounding the teen’s mother, who was trying to protect her son.
Anthony Deshawn Sneed, 15, is being charged as an adult with multiple serious offenses stemming from the incident that occurred on September 4th in Clinton Township.
The charges against Sneed include felony murder as a juvenile defendant, second-degree murder, assault with intent to murder, armed robbery, and four counts of felony firearm possession.

An Arizona man has been charged with the murder of his childhood friend after the headless body of Alijah Bradley was discovered in the desert. The remains of the 24-year-old were found near Gila Bend, just days after his family had reported him missing.
Samuel Bush, 23, faces charges of second-degree intentional murder and concealing a body, with the charges being filed on September 4.
Bradley’s family was left puzzled over the motive behind the murder. A relative, who wished to remain anonymous, expressed their confusion to local news outlets KPHO and KTVK, stating, “We honestly don’t know. He was Sam’s best friend. He was Sam’s only friend.”
The family had reported Bradley missing on August 15 after he failed to show up for work and his mother had not heard from him. Bush had initially told the family he was unaware of Bradley’s whereabouts.
Using GPS coordinates, Bradley’s car was tracked to a remote desert location. On August 19, police found both the car and Bradley’s remains.
Authorities revealed that Bradley’s body had been dismembered, and confirmed that all parts of his remains had been recovered. The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has yet to comment on a potential motive for the crime.
Bradley’s aunt, Melissa McNeal, shared her sorrow with ABC15, stating, “It’s devastating. He was just beginning his adulthood.” She added, “I don’t feel a relief or anything because – it doesn’t bring him back. It doesn’t fix anything.”
Bradley’s mother, who chose not to be named, committed herself to seeking justice for her son, saying, “I’m committing my life to obtaining justice for my son.”
Bradley was a Northern Arizona University graduate and had recently celebrated his birthday. A fundraising page set up for his family described him as being “known for his free spirit and wild soul.”

A California family experienced a terrifying ordeal during their Labor Day picnic when their 5-year-old son was attacked by a mountain lion. The incident occurred just before 4:30 p.m. on Sunday at the Tapia Day Use Area of Malibu State Creek Park in Calabasas, as reported by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office.
The boy’s family and several other adults and children were enjoying their time when the mountain lion suddenly grabbed the child by the head and began to run.
“Somebody screamed the baby’s name, and his dad started running,” the boy’s aunt recounted.
“The father grabbed the mountain lion with his hands, and he just fought. Then the mountain lion let go.”
The dramatic rescue unfolded in front of about 40 onlookers, some of whom noted that the mountain lion appeared completely unafraid during the attack.
Male mountain lions can weigh up to 150 pounds and measure up to 8 feet in length, making the father’s actions even more heroic.
The boy was promptly airlifted to Northridge Hospital Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. He was released later that Sunday but had to return to the hospital on Monday due to complications involving his eyes.
Upon arrival at the scene, California State Park rangers and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) officers found the mountain lion crouched in a tree near the picnic area.
The animal was deemed a threat to public safety and was euthanized by a ranger.
Wildlife officers collected evidence from the boy’s injuries, including DNA swabs from the bite marks, which were matched to the mountain lion.
“CDFW and State Park officials are thankful that the family is safe, and the child is recovering and no one else was injured,” the CDFW stated.

“Stop & frisk” did show promise until it was deemed “racist” by unelected MFIs. (Who also ignore black on black crime.)

Start taking these punks off the street permanently! Stay aware, and stay armed! There’s no way in hell cops can be everywhere you are, and when seconds count, they’re minutes if not hours away! Aggravated assault? Attempted murder x’s 3!! A million dollars says this ain’t her first run in with the law!

Conceal carry is the best way to protect yourself and your family. Train to shoot accurately. The these idiots understand that they will not make it out alive, the less we will have of these instances.
