PHILADELPHIA — Eight people were wounded in a mass shooting early Saturday morning at a South Philadelphia bar.
It happened around 3:50 a.m. at the 7 Elements Restaurant Bar and Lounge in the 1100 block of South 11th Street.
Police say the gunfire erupted after a physical altercation on an exterior balcony.
All the victims, among them two women aged 25, a 27-year-old woman, a 28-year-old man, a 30-year-old man, a 42-year-old man, and two men aged 43, are in stable condition at the hospital.

Investigators are now working to figure out exactly what was happening when the gunfire erupted.
“This business should not be operating so late, and when we arrived, it was closed. We had to make sure there were no additional victims inside,” stated Inspector D.F. Pace.
It’s not yet clear how many people opened fire.
According to the police, several shell casings were found at the second-floor bar, on the stairway leading to the street, and additional shell casings were discovered in the parking area below.
“We’re not sure if those shell casings came from a gun that was fired above, or if the gunman or gunmen were firing even from the lower floors,” Pace said.
No arrests have been made.
Authorities had originally said 11 people were shot, but they have since updated the number after realizing some of the victims were counted twice.
Anyone with information can call or text Philadelphia police at 215-686-TIPS (8477) or submit an anonymous tip online.
