This week we are looking at one of the wildest events I personally have ever heard of.
In 1985 an organization known as MOVE was causing waves in the community. They had already been run out of one home, and now the cops were on their way to run them out of another.
But what they ended up doing would take the lives of 11 people in that house, 5 of them children. and destroy two city blocks. Within months Philly became known as The City That Bombed Itself.
