Traffic stop

    Two men were injured yesterday when a traffic light fell on them. Yes, fell on them. The men, both in their 20s, were at 23rd and Diamond Streets in North Philadelphia when the light fell on them, Action News reports.

     

    Both were treated for minor injuries, and the Streets Department is investigating how an entire traffic light could keel over in the middle of the day.
