Here are the top stories today in Philadelphia:

1. No, it's not the premise of the movie Groundhog's Day. Yes, another candidate has announced their run for Philadelphia mayor. Real estate magnate and former Philadelphia City Councilmember Allan Domb has announced he's running for mayor. The Democrat joins a crowded and growing field in next year's race to replace Mayor Jim Kenney. Domb says he was moved to run for mayor after hearing from constituents who say they do not feel safe.

2. Transportation Security Administration officers at the Philadelphia International Airport over the weekend found the 39th gun this year on a passenger. Officers found a .380 caliber handgun loaded with seven rounds, one of which was in the chamber, while doing an X-ray scan of the passenger's bags Saturday. Travelers are allowed to transport their firearms as checked baggage to be transported in the belly of the plane so that nobody has access to a gun during a flight. Checked firearms must be unloaded, placed in a hard-sided case, locked and packed separately from ammunition. (PA Patch)
3. A Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee voted in favor of articles of impeachment against Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner. The vote will now be sent to the floor of the state House. Republicans blame Krasner for the surge in crime because they consider the district attorney's policies too soft. (cbsnews.com)

• Finally, we're starting to become a serious bagel town! And that's not because of the cream cheese name! Kismet Bagels, which began as an idea during COVID-19 and then became an online popup shop in 2020, opened its first brick & mortar location in Fishtown in April. Now, husband-and-wife owners Jacob and Alexandra Cohen are expanding their footprint in Philadelphia. With their bialy stall already in the works at the Reading Terminal Market, eyeing a December opening, the entrepreneurs are also preparing to open their second brick & mortar – this one located at 1700 Sansom Street in Philadelphia's Rittenhouse neighborhood for a December opening as well.
