The driver accused of causing a head-on crash that killed two Berks County fire chiefs on Saturday is now charged. KYW Newsradio's John McDevitt reports live with the very latest.

A Philadelphia police officer shot and killed a man in West Philadelphia Tuesday morning.

Police were called to 55th and Webster streets a little before 7:30 a.m. for a report of a person with a gun. Officers approached the 74-year-old man with a gun on a front porch.

“There was very quickly a confrontation,” said Deputy Commissioner Frank Vanore. “The male had a firearm. There were shots fired during that confrontation, and the male was struck one time.”

The officer’s partner drove the man to the hospital, where he died.

The officers were not injured.

Investigators said they don’t know who shot first, whether it was the man or the officer.

New Jersey is not allowed to regulate prediction markets like Kalshi. A federal appeals court ruled on Monday that prediction markets are exclusively under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

In the 2-to-1 decision, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals panel agreed with Kalshi’s argument that Congress gave exclusive jurisdiction to the CFTC.

New Jersey argued prediction markets circumvent gambling age restrictions, state taxes and other regulations that companies like DraftKings and FanDuel must abide by. One dissenting judge wrote that Kalshi’s offerings are indistinguishable from online gambling products.

This issue is also being argued at other courts, including in California and Massachusetts.

Twenty-five miles. One thousand dollars.

That's how much it'll cost you to travel between Philly International and Wilmington Airport on American Airlines' Landline service -- but that's by design.

The head of Landline told the Inquirer it's not meant to be a standalone bus route -- and it's priced so people will be discouraged from booking it.

It's meant to be part of a longer trip; so, for instance, you can book travel from Wilmington to London; the bus would take you from ILG airport to PHL, and then it's a flight to Heathrow.

When we checked, the bus portion of the ticket didn't add a dollar to the cost.

Among law programs, Penn's Carey School is tied for fourth. Temple and Villanova law schools are tied at No. 49.

Penn is also in the top 10 on the U.S. News list of best nursing schools.

We'll learn more today about the head-on crash that killed two fire chiefs in Berks County. The Berks County District Attorney's Office plans to hold a press conference at 11 a.m.

Prosecutors say 26-year-old Alexander Rivera, of New York City, had marijuana and a crack pipe in his car when he was arrested. They say he told police he fell asleep at the wheel. Witnesses say they saw Rivera's car "weaving back and forth" before it struck the fire chiefs' utility vehicle.

On Monday, firefighters from Berks and surrounding counties honored the fire chiefs as their bodies were transported to the Lehigh County Coroner's Office.

It was around 4:30 p.m. when police said a man came inside 40th & Market Grocery dressed in all black with a gun drawn to his side.

The 26-year-old was shot in his lower body, fell to the ground, then was shot again in the stomach.
