UPENN Students Bridge Jumping

Yesterday, April 24th 2009, I was walking on the Schuylkill River Trail with my cousin and friend. We were thinking about walking to the Penn Relays which were going on that day but decided to just stop by the river and relax. Little did we know, it was also Hey Day for University of Pennsylvania Students.

“Hey Day” is a tradition for students to mark the advancement of each class.

These particular students were celebrating their Hey Day, or moving up to the next class year, by jumping off of the Walnut St. bridge into the murky, dirty, infested (with what no one knows) Schuylkill River.

Philadelphia: Police Cruiser Crash

I was leaving the National Mechanics restaurant in Old City and when I approached 5th & Market Streets, it was blocked. I saw police cars and fire engines so I parked on 5th and walked down with my camera.

On March 24, 2009 a police cruiser collided with a VW Passat driven by an 18yo female on 7th and Market Sts in Philadelphia PA. This is the aftermath. News coverage from FOX29

Hand held Canon 450D/XSi w/ Sigma 18-200mm

I got there after they used the jaws of life to get the drivers-side door of the police cruiser off. There was a small crowd remaining when I got there. People were speculating on what happened. Immediately, blame went to the police officer. I offered my thoughts to a police officer and well wishes for the injured officer. Their job is so risky it’s a wonder things like this aren’t more commonplace.
