Commissioner Kevin Bethel stated that the crash followed a response to a domestic call. After handling the call, which involved a man and his father, officers returned to patrol.
Later, the same man drove his vehicle into the station, Bethel told NBC Philadelphia.
Bethel called the incident a ‘deliberate act.’ Five people who were in the lobby waiting for service were injured. The suspect was taken into custody.
