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

Days Friday, July 22nd. Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning. In the news this morning, authorities say five people were hurt and several cars were vandalized when three unruly swimmers became violent after being told to leave a Philadelphia pool. The incident happened Thursday afternoon at the McVeigh Playground Rec Center on the 400 block of East Ontario Street, according to police. Investigators say staff members repeatedly asked three female swimmers to leave for unruly behavior, but they refused and

became hostile. The swimmers continued to sit at the end of the pool and threatened staff members,

police say. The staff closed the pool then and all other swimmers left without an issue,

according to police. The female swimmers then followed the pool employees into the rec center

where police say two of them started swinging their arms at staff members who were trying to block them. When you guys were lifeguards, did they give you pistols? No, but you know, at swim clubs I didn't have to worry about that because we had the manager. Oh, all right. But when I started working apartment pools, that's where I was, the lifeguard and the manager. And I remember having an incident at this pool in Norristown. Oh, my God. Do you eject people? Wait, did you go, did you get moved from pool to pool? Like, was that part of the job? When I was doing... Flewantown looking for some pool work? Two different summers. One summer I was basically parked at one place, but then the other summer I was kind of all over the place.

There were a couple of places around the corner from here that I worked at. There was one in Norristown. There was one in Oaks that I would work at. Like, I would go all over the place, the one in Springfield. But this one in particular, I had to kick this kid out. He's bigger than me. Did he get physical? No, but it could have. Yeah.

It could have.

I mean, there's not a lot of staff there at a pool, right?

I was the... He's bigger than me. Did he get physical? No, but it could have. It could have.

I mean, there's not a lot of staff there at a pool, right?

I was the only one.

I was the only person.

Steve, I worked for the Bucks County Parks and Recreation.

Like our pool was part of the county rec.

So we had park rangers.

So if anything happened, we called the park Park Rangers, and they would come right over.

Yeah, you should have had yourself a few park Rangers.

Case would have been easier, yeah.

So, Seth, we're able to get the combatants out of the building at which point police say they then vandalized three parked cars.
