GUNCRAZY: Two Teens & Amputee Critically Wounded In West Philly Trifecta After Chinese Takeout Spat

(AP) PHILADELPHIA Three people were injured, including two teens, after gunfire erupted in West Philadelphia Wednesday evening.

Police said two teens and a 58-year-old [NOT pictured, right] were shot near the intersection of 57th and Walnut just before 7 p.m.

?We had a group of males in the 100 block of S. 57th Street firing a gun,? said Lieutenant John Walker of the Philadelphia Police.

Officials believe the three victims were just innocent bystanders in an act of senseless violence.

One 14-year-old was shot in the back and was taken to the Children?s Hospital of Philadelphia in critical condition. Authorities said a 15-year-old suffered a gunshot wound to the arm and is in stable condition at CHOP.

Officials said a 58-year-old amputee was taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania after being struck in the leg by gunfire while standing on the porch of a group home.

No arrests have been made. Authorities believe the shooting may have stemmed from an argument at a nearby Chinese restaurant.
