The 26-year-old woman who was driving the 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 involved in the crash was taken into custody for questioning, police said.
The victims were part of a large crowd that took to the streets after the Eagles beat the Washington Commanders 55-23 in the NFC championship game, sending them to the Super Bowl.
The accident took place at approximately 9:30 p.m. near Center City, one of Philadelphia's most storied neighborhoods and home to such historic attractions as the Liberty Bell.
Police said in a post on X that the incident did not appear to be intentional.
The investigation remains ongoing.
