Reply to comment by STLLC2019 in What can Philadelphia do as PA’s sole Class 1 city that Pittsburgh PA’s sole Class 2 city can’t? by [deleted]

This is the statute that allows for limited statewide jurisdiction for municipal police officer (Philly PD is a municipal PD). There are no special carve outs for Philly or first class cities.
