PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia police officers will soon be trading in their recognizable powder blue uniform tops for "midnight" navy blue shirts, Sgt. Eric Gripp said. "This change is part of a broader effort to honor our department's history while preparing for the future," Gripp said in a statement Wednesday. "Midnight blue reconnects us to the traditional look worn by PPD officers for over a century prior to the adoption of light blue shirts in the 1970s."Copyright 2025 Tribune Content Agency.

That’s the same North Philly pool where Rendell in 1998 famously leaped into the water while holding hands with neighborhood kids. Parker held her nose while she jumped in and was joined by her chief of staff, Tiffany W. Thurman; Managing Director Adam K.
