Two men were killed and four others sustained gunshot wounds in an overnight shooting when a gunman opened fire Sunday at what appeared to be a hidden bar in Philadelphia, Philadelphia police said.

Just before 1 a.m. Sunday, officers responded to a report of a person with a gun inside a residence that appeared to be operating as a bootlegger.

When officers arrived at the home, they found a 53-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the face, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 41-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and a 42-year-old man with a gunshot wound to his left hand were also found, police said. Both were taken to a local hospital. However, the 41-year-old man succumbed to his injuries shortly after arriving, police said.
