Family-owned Philadelphia pizza shop reopens weeks after mother and daughter shot during attempted robbery

PHILADELPHIA - A Mayfair family-owned pizza shop is officially back open, almost three weeks after police say a 19-year-old man attempted to rob the store and shot two employees—the mother and daughter who co-own the family business."I’m just happy to be alive, I can’t say it enough," said Stacy Karasavas, who co-owns the shop with her mother.From the moment they opened their doors at 2 p.m. on Monday, the phone didn’t stop ringing—not only from customers, but people checking in to see how the family is doing."This is our second home, you know, we’re here more than we are at home, so we have to reclaim it, and we’re back behind the counter, and we feel good," Stacy said.Back on March 8th, Philadelphia Police say Kaleb Bridges, 19, walked into the business on Frankford Avenue just before 9 p.m., armed and demanding money.The Karasavas’ say they complied with demands, but Bridges fired his gun, striking Stacy in the shoulder so critically that the bullet is still lodged underneath her scapula.

Childcare services in Pennsylvania being impacted by staffing shortages

PHILADELPHIA - Child care services in Philadelphia and beyond are being impacted by staffing shortages that have left classrooms empty and working parents desperate to find alternatives. Kyesha Moody, the Director of Brightside Academy in Southwest Philadelphia, said finding qualified staff that understands child development and the difficulties facing the profession has been hard.The school, located on Woodland Avenue, had nine empty classrooms when FOX 29's Monica Evans visited the building on Tuesday. Mai Miksic from Children First advocacy group said on average a kindergarten teacher will earn $40k a year, which is double the amount of what an early childhood education teacher with similar skills makes. She believes the low pay for qualified staff, paired with childcare fees billed to parents is putting a burden on our economy. The costs for a child and infant, Miksic explained, can cost as much as $1,600-$1,700 a month, or $20k per year. "Parents work in every sector from healthcare to education to restaurants, so the economy isn't going to recover fully unless we solve this child care crisis," Miksic said.
