Police said "several active shooters" opened fire at a crowd in a popular nightlife area in Philadelphia, the largest city in the state of Pennsylvania. Fourteen people were taken to hospital, where two men and a woman were pronounced dead, according to police. Two automatic handguns were recovered from the scene, including one with an extended magazine. There have been no arrests made so far.
