PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia residents were asking questions after a group of people armed with bats and other objects took to the streets Monday night in Fishtown.
And Mayor Jim Kenney provided his answer during a noon news conference Tuesday: "Going forward, any displays of vigilantism will not be tolerated, period," Kenney said.
Mayor Kennet condemned the actions of a group of residents armed with baseball bats in Fishtown Monday. Tensions rose Monday as residents faced off with demonstrators near Frankford and Girard avenues.
SkyFOX and a FOX 29 crew were there as groups of people filled street corners near the 600 block of East Girard hours after a mandatory citywide curfew went into effect at 6 p.m.
