Two sanitation workers who were on the picket line in the AFSCME District Council 33 union strike were hit by a vehicle in Philadelphia's Port Richmond section late Thursday night, police said. A driver is already in custody and charged with hit-and-run and driving under the influence.

PHILADELPHIA -- A strike being staged by nearly 10,000 city workers in Philadelphia entered its second day Wednesday as a judge ordered some emergency service dispatchers and essential water department employees to return to work.

Trash piled up in parts of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Thursday (July 3) as thousands of city workers continued to go on strike.
