2 more violent incidents

It was a violent day across the Philly suburbs yesterday.

It started at the Chester County Justice Center in West Chester, where a man slashed a sheriff's deputy before being fatally shot by another officer.

In a weird twist, the suspect, 34-year-old Curtis Smith of Coatesville, is the same guy who was arrested back in February for trying to scale the fence outside the White House in Washington, D.C.

Just a few minutes later, gunshots rang out in Glenolden.

Police say a "transaction" went bad. The result? Two men shot, and three men being sought.

One of the men made his way across the street to a business before collapsing on the front steps.

All of this happened in broad daylight. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

The mean streets seem to get a little meaner every day.
