Two Chicago Bulls fans were shot after an argument with two other passengers on a train in Philadelphia following their team's 96-89 victory over the 76ers on Wednesday night, police said.
The shooting happened at 10:39 p.m. at the 46th Street station of the Market-Frankford line when a 36-year-old man and a 30-year-old man got into an argument about the teams with two males, described as 16 to 19 years old, according to officer Jillian Russell.
The 36-year-old man was shot in the stomach by one of the teens, and the bullet went through his stomach and struck the 30-year-old man in the thigh, according to Russell. The two teens then fled the train.
The shooting victims are in stable condition at an area hospital, according to Russell, who said no suspects are in custody.
It is uncertain whether the Bulls fans were in attendance for the game at the Wells Fargo Center.
