Two men were shot Sunday morning in the Franklinville section of North Philly, prompting Temple University<\/a> to alert its students to avoid the area. <\/p>\n Around 11:50 a.m., police responded to a shooting on a highway in the 3400 block of Germantown<\/a> Avenue, near Temple University Hospital, according to Philadelphia Police. <\/p>\n Two people in a vehicle fired at a different vehicle, striking two people and driving away, Denise Wilhelm, Interim Vice President for Public Safety and Chief of Police at Temple, said in a statement. <\/p>\n An injured person walked into Temple University Hospital, while another was transported by police. They are being treated for non-life-threatening injuries, Wilhelm said. <\/p>\n The shooting scene is being held for investigation, police said, and Temple Police are assisting detectives in reviewing security video.<\/p>\n In the meantime, Wilhelm said, Temple University<\/a> is increasing its police patrols in the area. <\/p>\n While Wilhelm said there is no connection between the university and the shooting, Temple is offering support for students through Tuttleman Counseling Services<\/a>, and an assistance program<\/a> for faculty and staff. <\/p>\n Anyone with information about the shooting can contact the PPD tip line at 215-686-TIPS (8477) or East Detectives at 215-686-3243.
