Estallaron disturbios masivos en la ciudad el lunes por la noche después de la muerte del residente negro Walter Wallace Jr, quien se negó a dejar su cuchillo y recibió varios disparos de agentes de policía en el oeste de Filadelfia.
Los negocios están siendo ampliamente saqueados en Filadelfia, especialmente en el área de las avenidas Castor y Aramingo, en medio de los continuos disturbios por la muerte de Wallace, informó la policía de Filadelfia el martes por la noche.
Las autoridades también instaron a los ciudadanos del oeste de Filadelfia, Kensington, Fairhill, North Philly, Fishtown y Port Richmond a quedarse en casa, ya que las protestas se han vuelto violentas.
