PHILADELPHIA - As investigators continue to probe a shooting at a 4th of July fireworks show in Philadelphia that left two police officers hurt, one of the injured officers said he feels grateful that his injuries weren't far worse than they could have been.
Officer Sergio Diggs, a 14-year member of the Philadelphia Police Department, was assigned to highway patrol on Independence Day.
As a large crowd gathered on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway for 4th of July fireworks, Diggs and Montgomery County deputy John Foster were struck by gunfire.
A massive police response swarmed the 2500 block of Spring Garden Street as onlookers ran for safety. The Benjamin Franklin Parkway was evacuated as authorities scoured the area for a possible suspect, but eventually did not make any arrests.Diggs told FOX 29's Mike Jerrick that he initially thought he was hit in the head by a thrown object, then noticed a large amount of blood.
