    Two killed and nine injured in Philadelphia shooting

    Two people have been killed and nine injured in a shooting in Philadelphia’s Fairmount Park on Memorial Day.

    Police said a large number of people were gathered near Lemon Hill Drive and Sedgley Drive at around 10.30pm local time on Monday when shots were fired.

    A man and a woman were killed, and three teenagers – aged 15, 16 and 17 – were among the injured, all of whom were said to be in a stable condition following the shooting in the United States.

    The latest updates from Philadelphia shooting

    “We have not recovered any weapons at this time,” a police officer told reporters.

    “This is significant. It’s Memorial Day… we understand the significance of this event and we will make sure to provide an update on Tuesday.”

    Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States, usually observed on the last Monday of May.

    The day is dedicated to honouring and mourning military personnel who have died in the performance of their duties.

    Police said they have made no arrests so far and they have not yet released information on any suspects.

    Fairmount Park was closed late on Monday evening following the shooting.
