Revelers in the crowd did not appear to hear the gunshots.
Following the incident, news Chopper 3 hovered over the area, which is about a block away from the end of the parade route at the Philadelphia Museum of Art where Eagles players and coaches delivered speeches.
Around one million people were expected to gather in Philadelphia to celebrate the Eagles’ 40-22 victory on Sunday over the Kansas City Chiefs.
