PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Pennsylvania House on Tuesday voted to hold Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner in contempt. This comes after the district attorney declined to comply with a subpoena issued by a select committee.

The committee says Krasner is denying members access to important documents and that's hindering its work.

Eyewitness News reached out to Krasner for comment. We haven't gotten a response.

Republican legislators have been working to impeach Krasner.
