And now, Preston and Steve's news update with Kathy Romano.

I'd say Tuesday, July 12th.

Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning.

In the news this morning, two miners wanted in connection with a deadly attack on a 73-year-old man in Philadelphia last month, surrender to police Monday afternoon. Two brothers ages 10 and 14.

10 years old. That's insane. I mean, unbelievable. 10 and 14, they surrendered to police alongside their attorney. They were normal kids, said their attorney, the attorney representing the 10-year-old.

The brothers and five others were allegedly involved in the June 24th attack on the 2100 block of Cecil B. Moore Avenue in North Philadelphia.

Police say 73-year-old James Lambert, affectionately known as Simi, was attacked by four males and three females.

Many of the suspects are believed to be in their early to mid-teens.

Police say the suspect struck Lambert several times with objects knocking him to the ground.

In surveillance video released by police on Friday, the suspects can be seen attacking the victim with a traffic cone.

This was one of those videos that was hard to watch. I didn't even want to see it. It makes you sick. It makes you sick. Police say Lambert suffered injuries to his head and later died. Elsie Stevens, the victim's sister, says she is struggling to comprehend what happened. When my parents died, I raised my brothers and sisters. It's so sad. He lived that long. and these kids would take his life and beat him like he was nothing in the streets, said Stevens.

He was trying to get away from them and they ran behind him and they beat him like he was nothing.

Homicide Captain Jason Smith says at least two teens took part in the beating.

The medical examiner said Lambert died from blunt force trauma.

The mother of the 10-year-old suspect did not have anything to say when she left with her son Monday evening.

The 14-year-old boy remains in police custody.

No formal charges have been filed yet in the case.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department homicide unit at 215-686-3334. I mean, this is so tragic in so many different ways, but like what's really, you know, concerning here is at what point are you allowed to start to like physically defend yourself against children? Do you know what I mean? Like, is at a certain point, you're like, I can't hit a kid. Well, I can hit a child. You can hit a kid and you're trying to kill.

Yeah, absolutely.

I know, but like at what point, at the point of which they're trying to assault you, yeah. I mean, you can try to rest. But this was a mob of kids attacking him. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. awful. 22 passengers had to be rescued from a sinking fishing charter boat Monday in CIL City.
