PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - A 60-year-old man is in critical condition after he was struck by stray gunfire while watching TV inside of his home in South Philadelphia. It all started just after 10:30 p.m. Thursday on the 1700 block of Watkins Street.
Police say three people got out of a black vehicle and opened fire on a Honda.
A 22-year-old woman and a 23-year-old man were inside of the Honda, and took off. Police say the driver of the Honda lost control and crashed into two parked cars on 17th Street.
They were both treated at the hospital and have been released.
"The 60-year-old male was inside of his property, sitting on the couch in his living room watching television, when multiple shots were fired, and three stray bullets went through his property," Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said.
Detectives believe the Honda was targeted.
At last check, there were no arrests.
