4 Gunmen who ambushed 3 teens with 60+ rounds sought by police
The Philadelphia Police Department’s Shooting Investigation Group released surveillance video of suspects in a West Philadelphia triple shooting as the search continues for the gunmen. ABC 7 had the major details on the breaking story. They reported:
Police say a 13-year-old and two 16-year-olds were injured after more than 60 rounds were fired.Surveillance video shows four men, armed with rifles and semi-automatic pistols, firing down the block. One of the guns was an automatic weapon.”You see an automatic gun going off in broad daylight. Broad daylight on the streets of the city of Philadelphia. Four males just shooting up the block with no care in the world,” said Capt. James Kearney. “It’s very concerning, it’s disappointing, and these people need to be held accountable.”
The men were all wearing face masks during the shooting.Police also stated on Thursday that the four suspects were dropped off at the scene in a grey Honda CRV by a fifth suspect, who was behind the wheel.A CRV was found two days later, burned out in Belmont. Investigators are looking into whether or not it is the same car used in this shooting.
“We believe somebody out there in that community, in that neighborhood, may have seen something, may have seen a small piece of this puzzle to help my investigators solve this case,” said Kearney.Two of the three victims remain in critical condition at local hospitals. The third is in stable condition. Police are unsure why these teens were targeted
