  • The Philadelphia Fire Department is investigating the cause of a two-alarm blaze in Kensington Monday afternoon that destroyed a multi-use warehouse building that included three small businesses.

  • A new problem has emerged in Philadelphia's child welfare system, which is already struggling with staff shortages and high caseloads. The city's largest provider has pulled out of the system because of high insurance costs.
