Police are searching for three suspects in connection with the mass shooting in Philadelphia's Grays Ferry neighborhood that left three people dead and nine others injured early Monday morning.

Philadelphia Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel said the shooting occurred on the 1500 block of South 27th Street just before 1 a.m. Late Monday night, Philadelphia police released a video of three suspects on Ring surveillance who remain at large.

Bethel described the incident as part of a violent Fourth of July weekend in the city, which saw six homicides and numerous shootings.

"As you know, the July 4th holiday, both in Philadelphia and across this country, in particular in our urban centers, have been very challenging," Bethel said, "but we remain resolute in our work."
