PHILADELPHIA — The police commissioner said Thursday he will not pursue criminal charges against a group of angry neighbors who beat a man sought for questioning in the rape of an 11-year-old girl.
Commissioner Charles Ramsey said he made the decision based on the fact that the man’s head and face injuries were not life-threatening, his determination that the neighbors’ intent was to bring the man to police and the high level of emotion in the community after the girl’s brutal attack.
