burlington bristol bridge the overnight construction here is cleared. traffic back to normal and taking you into new jersey, this is folsom atlantic county route 322 right near 54 here, we've got restrictions until 6 o'clock because of some construction going on right now, tam. >> thank you, karen. let's get now right back to that breaking news story that we're f a philadelphia officer has been wounded after a confrontation with a suspect. that suspect was shot dead by police. let's go right on over to "action news" reporter katherine scott. she is live outside of einstein hospital where that officer is now being treated. what's the latest, katherine? >> reporter: well, tam, ofcer steven korpalski is in stable condition. he was alert and talking earlier. he's from the 15th district, a 14 year veteran of the force married with a three week old baby. as for the suspect, he was pronounced dead earlier this morning and his gun that he allegedly fired at police was recovered at the scene. you could see it lying on the

street there. this all happened just before 12:45 this morning. officer car -- korpalski and partner remembered seeing a suspect about a block back. when they spotted him at mcgee and torresdale police say the suspect immediately fired his weapon at the officers. korpalski and three other officers returned fire. korpalski was grazed in the head. one man said he heard the gun shots from about seven blocks away. >> you could tell it was gunfire. that's what made me get up and turn on my scanner and i started listening to it, heard a cop shot and i just came right down. >> reporter: police do have a tentative identification of the suspect but they're awaiting fingerprints. they have not released any names yet. as is protocol when an officer fires a weapon internal

affairs is investigating and the district attorney will review this case. the police commissioner and the deputy commissioner were here early this morning visiting with officer korpalski. you'll hear from them coming up in the next hour. we are live at einstein hospital, katherine scott, channel 6 "action news." >> okay, katherine, thank you for that live report. ferguson, missouri remains a city under siege this morning. police and protesters clashed again overnight. "action news" reporter erin o'hearn is following this story for us. she's live in our satellite center gathering the very latest information on this unfolding situation. erin. >> sharrie, the area looked more like a war zone overnight and despite the presence of the national guard and strict new protest rules, new violence still occurred in the overnight hours. this is the ninth night of unrest in ferguson since the shooting of unarmed teenager michael brown by a police officer back on august 9th.

[gunfire] now t-the evening did begin peacefully but quickly deteriorate where'd some members of the crowd reportedly started throwing rocks and molotov cocktails. missouri highway patrol captain ron johnson held somewhat of an emotional press conference overnight confirming two people had been shot. one police officer came under gunfire and fires had been set at a business and an unoccupied residence. johnson said these were not the acts of peaceful protesters but the violent acts of a few criminals who infiltrated the crowd. over the 31 arrests made overnight were people on the streets coming in from new york and california. johnson reiterated that he was not discouraging peaceful protesters but had no tolerance for the ongoing violence. >> we're going to make this neighborhood whole. we are going to make this communities whole and we're going to do it together. and i am not going to let the criminals that have come out here from across this country

or live in this community to define this neighborhood and define what we're going to do to make it right. >> and johnson continued to defend his police force saying despite the fact that many officers came under heavy attack last night, officers did not fire one bullet. however, some protesters have a very different take on how events escalated overnight and we'll have more of that coming up at 6:00 a.m. sharrie, back to you. >> okay, erin, thank you. meanwhile president obama is calling for a review of local police departments in the wake of the unrest in ferguson. currently departments do receive grants that allow them to obtain heavy artillery from the pentagon but critics are concerned weapons meant for the battlefield do not belong on city streets. >> it's 5:36 and a major medical network breach has exposed sensitive information at several hospitals in our area. community health systems claims that chinese hackers stole perth data on 4.5 million patients. they have names, social
