This is disconcerting, especially when you see that the  incident happened 
during the afternoon on a Saturday. We're not exactly talking  hookers and 
pushers in the wee hours of the morning.

At about 3:15 p.m. Saturday, four unknown males attacked a 25-year-old man 
on  the Clark Park basketball courts. 
According to Philadelphia Police spokeswoman Officer Christine O’Brien, the 
 victim was sitting on a bench located inside the court when a group of 
males  approached him from behind and struck him on the back of his head with a 
 gun. 
Once the victim fell to the ground, the assailants, whom O’Brien described 
as  four black males between the ages of 16 and 20, then proceeded to kick 
and punch  him numerous times. One of the assailants shot the victim in the 
right knee  before fleeing on foot with the others. 
The victim was admitted to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania 
to  receive treatment for the knee wound and is now in stable condition. 
O’Brien said no arrests have been made thus  far.
