Multiple people are shot at huge end-of-Ramadan Eid celebration in Philadelphia

Multiple people have reportedly been shot during an Eid celebration in West Philadelphia. 

Four people have reportedly been arrested and guns were seized from the scene, reports 6abc. At least one police officer also fired a weapon at the scene. 

It is unclear exactly how many people have been shot or what the extent of their injuries are. One of those being treated is a suspected gunman, reports Philadelphia Inquirer. 

A pedestrian running from the shooting was also reportedly hit by a car. The extent of their injuries is not clear.  

A heavy police presence has descended on the area near the Philadelphia Masjid, and early reports indicate the shooting may have occurred outside the mosque. 

A young child purportedly began live streaming after the shooting, where he said: 'This is scary because I almost got shot.' 

'I was running straight and almost got shot, and I just kept running...' 

The shots reportedly came shortly after 2pm, where a large crowd had gathered for the religious event. 

Officials have set up a family reunification center after groups were separated when shots rang out, sending the large crowd into a frenzy. 

Nearby schools have been placed on lockdown.
