PHILADELPHIA POLICE SCANNER LIVETWEET THREAD - if you're protesting in philly, pay attention to this thread, and share it with other protesters!
15 and chestnut trashcan on fire
more units heading to 17 and walnut
in case anyone didn't know: curfew from 8pm to 6am
all/most prisoners are being transported to 22nd district
arresting anyone throwing or looting when they have a chance
ANYONE out after curfew will be arrested and transported to the 22nd district
they are starting to arrest people NOW, starting from 16th and chestnut. units coming to the walgreens on broad to stop looting
requesting more units at 16th and spring garden
protesters have taken over the AT&T store
6th and spring garden needs a wagon for prisoners
all rapid response units needed at 4th and south (i think)
from a DM, not confirmed: 50+ cops are stationed on the roof of the whole foods waiting for protestors. Unconfirmed, but I was told by someone at the store that they will be trying to sweep in that direction
4 female prisoners being brought to the 22nd, more units being requested at 13th and locust dry cleaners
wagon heading to juniper and chestnut
pushing down walnut street westbound, wagon following behind
central needs more units
it seems like a lot of arrests are happening rn, iâm not sure whatâs happening otherwise
iâm not sure how valuable my advice is since iâm not there and am only listening to the police radio, but it seems like all thatâs happening is arrests. maybe now would be a good time to head home? iâm not sure and honestly my advice is probably useless
it seems like some officers are done for the day, busses are collecting them
many officers are relieved and are being transported back to the philly police department (PAD). pretty sure that means there are less cops out rn
police are looking for a black mercedes with a jersey plate
wagons en route to 17th and chestnut
bike units heading to 19th and chestnut

large crowd 2 blocks away from (unclear) and market
âwe canât contain this over hereâ @ 12th and walnut. large crowds breaking windows, units have been requested
between 7th and 8th and market, windows are being broken and looted. police in their way now
people back at macyâs, windows breaking all over the place
gasoline leak at 1720 and chestnut
car fire at 17 and walnut
12th and walnut is clear
large group from macyâs now trying to break in to a business at 12th and market
or maybe walnut
at this point it seems like iâm just tweeting whatâs happening, but remember that iâm tweeting from the radio - if i tweet something, that means the cops know abt it
WAWA IS ON FIRE OMG
wagon being sent to wawa, 3 arrests have been made
people are inside the target on chestnut
THEYâRE OUT OF HANDCUFFS ON WALNUT (30 more on their way tho)
11 and market has a large crowd but units are not being sent
wagon heading to 11th and market, but it seems like theyâre running low on them
they currently have NO AVAILABLE WAGONS (if anyone doesnât know, wagons are what they call the vehicles that transport people who have been arrested)
cops heading to 11th and chestnut
wagon heading to 11th and market
protesters have breached the terminal at 12th and arch, whatever that means
they need a wagon at 18th and walnut but there arenât any

people are in the macyâs again
people are in the target again, all of these corporations are getting looted
they didnât have a wagon for 18th and walnut so they had to walk them all the way over to another lul
loooots of arrests happening, and apparently the wagons are separated by gender? thatâs wack
the 7/11 and 22nd and market is being looted pog
more units being requested and 22 and chestnut

A COP GOT RUN OVER AT 7TH AND CHESTNUT
theyâre requesting a rescue squad
they got run over by a white jeep or range rover
gunshot at 3100 G (idk what that means)

i hope there are protesters out there actually reading this thread lol
theyâre running out of batteries lol
cops heading to 15th and spruce

ppl are vandalizing cop cars
btw a lot of this is me directly quoting the broadcast

cops walking over from 17th and market to 20th and walnut
new âcommand postâ whatever that is at 10th and walnut

wagon needed at 12th and silver as well as 19th and chestnut
lots of cops at 12th and market i think? i kinda missed it
ppl breaking into stores at 15th and walnut, theyâre prob sending cops
theyâre talking about the movements of media? maybe itâs so they know what areas they need to pretend to be not violent in lul
like they just reported CNN going to 15th and walnut
the cop that was hit by a car has a broken arm
it seems like shit is dying down rn
they need wagons in like 5 locations, theyâre busy af
there are cops all over market street
THEY ARE LOOKING FOR CROWDS TO ARREST. THEYâLL BE HITTING THE BIGGEST FIRST
a bunch of arrests happened downtown
transporting prisoners from broad and walnut to the 22nd district. reminder that thatâs where theyâre transporting most if not all prisoners
requested several units at 12th and silver
cops are backing off of 16th and walnut
wagon needed at 15th and locust, 19 and chestnut, 15th and walnut
15 AND LOCUST HAS BEEN WAITING OVER AN HOUR FOR A WAGON, THEY JJST DONT HAVE ENOUGH TO KEEP UP
theyâre cutting off the broad street ramp
if youâre trying to enter or exit center city, donât use broad
this curfew is pretty much just an excuse to arrest anyone they donât like
they need to re-deploy, but they canât because there arenât any wagons to pick up their prisoner. if they have prisoners they canât transport, they canât do anything else
the less wagons they have available, the less the they are able to do
a wagon was vandalized pog
cops just got a supply drop, didnât hear where
the wagon that was vandalized doesnât have the keys in it- the cop who was driving it has them. for whatever reason, it needs to be brought back to the PAD
wagon en route to 12th and silver
a prisoner has been released? itâs unclear if itâs because she didnât do anything they donât like or bc they simply donât have the resources to transport her
note that for some reason they canât transport male and female prisoners in the same wagon
all highway units are heading to broad and spruce i think
there arenât any large crowds, mostly just small groups. they can and will âgrab them for curfew,â so be mindful
theyâre sending cops to 11th and arch @ the crowd of ~25 people
they think the crowd is heading toward cop vehicles, idk if they are
9 cops at 7th and market
thereâs a vehicle overturned (not cop) at 11th and N 34th (i think?) theyâre calling the towing company
cops are moving away from 17th and walnut (or at least theyâre asking to)
lmaooooo theyâre delivering food the cops
ppl broke into rite aid at 15th and arch, took out supplies and are running north
cops will probably move to intercept
yup, a bunch of cops are being sent over
theyâre going to 19 and arch to intercept
some people are also going south and west, and cops maybe moving to intercept
cops canât see around 19th st due to fire, seems like theyâre getting separated but are still there
4 more people arrested for curfew
wagon going to 17th and chestnut
iâm probably gonna stop this thread at midnight because iâm tired and things are dying down. will do it again tomorrow if needed
