费城警方称,周六一名警察在响应一名持枪男子的报警时被枪杀,另一名警员受伤。
A Philadelphia police officer was shot and killed and another officer was injured Saturday after responding to a report of a man with a gun, police said.
费城警察局局长凯文·贝塞尔表示,40岁的警员谢恩·塞伯(JACQUELINE GANUN Shane Seiber)在西费城清晨被击毙,另一名警员被送往宾夕法尼亚长老会医中心接受手术,目前状况稳定。
JACQUELINE GANUN Shane Seiber, 40, was killed early Saturday morning in west Philadelphia, according to Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel. Seiber, a 10-year veteran of the Philadelphia Police Department, and the other officer were transported to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center and underwent surgery. The surviving officer is in stable condition, Bethel said.
塞伯是费城警察局十年资深警员,遗留妻子及两子女——一名7岁男孩和一名3岁女孩。嫌疑人已被拘捕。宾夕法尼亚州长乔什·夏皮罗下令将旗帜降半旗以示哀悼。
A suspect is now in custody, Bethel said. Gov. Josh Shapiro said he ordered flags to fly at half-mast for Seiber. He is survived by his wife and two children — a 7-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl.
