'We need safety': Philadelphia leaders conclude community listening tour in Ogontz

PHILADELPHIA - Officials on Wednesday made their final stop on a two-month listening tour in troubled Philadelphia communities where concerned residents connected with law enforcement leaders on ways to quell violence. The Community Listening Tour initiative was spearheaded by the Office of Policy and Strategic Initiatives for Criminal Justice & Public Safety. The goal of the tour was to visit 10 different neighborhoods besieged by crime and violence to hear from community members and exchange ideas.The listening tour also gave people a chance to learn about the Philadelphia's violence prevention work, which is likely due for some adjustments following the conclusion of the initiative. "I won’t know how many tweaks we’ll do until I get an opportunity to really hear and see, but there will be some at least shifts or pivots related to the Roadmap to Safer Communities that will be informed by this process," Senior Director of Criminal Justice and Public Safety Erica Atwood said.Philadelphia recently confirmed plans to expand its Community Crisis Intervention Program with more staffing.

Kids are getting sicker for longer with new viruses, doctors say

PHILADELPHIA - Pediatricians say they are seeing more kids getting sick, but not with the usual illnesses - and they are taking longer to bounce back.Some parents think it's just kids being kids, especially being back in school without masks now. "Just other kids being sick, and then they get spreading germs, it's really all the same," one mom said.Doctors are attributing the spike to allergy season, late flu and possibly COVID-19.One mom says her children, a 4-year-old and five-month-old, have been sick for much longer than past times."There is definitely the possibility that because we have been so isolated and masked over the last two years that it may lead to the observation that viruses are taking longer to overcome by the immune system," said Dr. Mike Cirigliano.However, lingering sickness isn't the only problem.

PHILADELPHIA - A Philadelphia man is facing federal charges for allegedly shooting a SWAT officer who was executing an arrest warrant at a Fairhill apartment building last February. United States Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams on Wednesday said 35-year-old Kristian Reyes was wanted by authorities for state probation and parole violations. Members of the Philadelphia Police Department's SWAT team went to arrest Reyes at a property on the 100 block of West Lehigh Avenue on Feb. 11, but they did not receive a response after announcing their presence, according to investigators. Officers breached the door and headed up a narrow stairwell to a third-floor apartment and knocked where they again announced their presence but received no response. A Philadelphia police SWAT officer was treated and released at a local hospital after police say he was shot in his bulletproof vest in North Philadelphia while serving a warrant.While waiting for equipment to gain access to the apartment, investigators say the leader of the SWAT team heard multiple popping sounds and realized he was shot in the vest. The officer was rushed to the hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

Before Will Smith, who else was banned from the Oscars?

decision was announced last week after Smith pre-emptively resigned from the academy during the run-up to the meeting, calling his actions "shocking, painful, and inexcusable.""I accept and respect the Academy’s decision," Smith said in the aftermath.Meanwhile, talk of whether Smith should have to return the Best Actor Oscar he won for "King Richard" is ongoing, but only one Oscar has ever been revoked in the award’s 94-year history. In 1969, the Oscar for the documentary "Young Americans" was rescinded because it was deemed to be ineligible for that year. Smith will likely be keeping the Oscar he won, and will remain eligible to be nominated for and win more of them in the 10-year period he’s banned from the show, though he wouldn’t be able to show up to accept the award — virtually or in person.Will Smith accepts the award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for "King Richard" during the show at the 94th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood on Sunday, March 27, 2022.
