The FBI arrested six Philadelphia Police officers for offenses that include drug dealing, kidnapping and robbery.

Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said in a press conference on Wednesday that in over 40 years as a police officer “this is one of the worst cases of corruption I’ve ever heard,” CBS Philly reported.

The City of Philadelphia announced plans to welcome back for a third year the “Budweiser Made in America” Festival, an exciting, two-day music festival during Labor Day weekend. The event will be locally produced by Live Nation on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and will benefit local United Way organizations.

Shawn “Jay Z” Carter, Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, Budweiser and United Way announced that the City of Los Angeles will also host a “Budweiser Made in America” Festival during the 2014 Labor Day weekend. Live Nation will produce both the Philadelphia and Los Angeles music festivals, delivering must-see performances on both coasts. Details and lineups for both festival locations will be announced at a later date.

“For the third year in a row, Labor Day weekend in the City of Philadelphia will offer a unique combination of entertainment, culture and community, with the iconic Benjamin Franklin Parkway as the backdrop for the ‘East Coast’ Budweiser Made in America Festival,” said Mayor Michael A. Nutter. “There is something for everyone: Festival ticket-holders, cultural institution visitors and those with business on the Parkway are all welcome to take part in a relaxing weekend of holiday fun. With the success of the last two years in Philadelphia, the Budweiser Made in America Festival is expanding into a bi-coastal event which will bring the spirit of ‘Made in America’ to even more music fans across the country.”

“Budweiser Made In America” will be the first American festival to run simultaneously on both coasts. Performances from both “Budweiser Made In America” sites will be available for fans to view with live-streaming.

The Budweiser Made in America Festival in Philadelphia will benefit United Way organizations in Greater Philadelphia, Southern New Jersey and Lancaster County, PA. The Festival’s primary goal is to have a positive impact on the communities involved. Money invested into these communities will positively impact the education, income and health of the most vulnerable and needy citizens in these regions. As a result of last year’s Festival, United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey is investing more than $300,000 into education and workforce development initiatives. The L.A. Festival will benefit the United Way of Greater Los Angeles.
