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.”

“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.
