Two police officers and a suspect were shot after an hours-long standoff in the Germantown section of Philadelphia early Sunday morning.
Both officers were wearing ballistic vests and expected to survive.
The gunfire happened shortly before 7 a.m. Sunday in 400 block of West Bringhurst Street. Police had responded at 4 a.m. after reports emerged that a man was locked inside a home, armed with a gun.
The suspect fired shots at the police from a third-floor window once officers arrived on the scene, leading to a standoff that lasted through the night.
