A man is listed in critical condition after he was found on a West Philly roadway, near a bullet-riddled SUV, after he had been shot multiple times in the face, police said. According to police, officers discovered the injured man when they responded to a report of a parson with a gun on the 500 block of South Salford Street in the Cobbs Creek section of West Philadelphia at about 11:35 p.m. on Friday night.
