TEMPLE RAINBOW: A vibrant rainbow appeared over North Philadelphia following a vigil for slain Temple University police officer Chris Fitzgerald. MORE:
Philadelphia officials and Temple University leaders held a press conference Tuesday morning to address the fatal shooting of Temple University Police Officer Chris Fitzgerald.
Investigators detailed the deadly shooting that unfolded just after 7 p.m. Sunday on the 1700 block of Montgomery Avenue. Officer Fitzgerald, 31, was in a single-officer patrol car when he saw three young people dressed in dark clothes with masks and attempted to investigate due to recent crimes in the area.
Officer Fitzgerald radioed dispatchers that he was in a foot chase with the three individuals. Police say two of the teens being chased - one of who is the brother of the alleged shooter - hid during and were later stopped by a 22nd district police officer. The two teens who were stopped by police - ages 16 and 17 - helped investigators identify 18-year-old Miles Pfeffer as the gunman who fired deadly shots at Officer Fitzgerald. Less than 24-hours later, investigators tacked down Pfeffer at his home in Buckingham Township.
