Gunman fires shot at victims after intervening in argument between them in Brewerytown: Police
PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police say a man intervening in an argument between another man and a woman ended up shooting them both.
It happened around 12:30 a.m. Monday on the 2700 block of West Girard Avenue in Brewerytown.

The male victim was struck in the arm and the female victim suffered a graze wound to the thigh.
Both victims were taken to Temple University Hospital for treatment.
No arrests have been made.
