Investigators released surveillance footage Tuesday in an attempt to identify a man who shot a teenager Halloween night in Holmesburg.
The gunman fired into a white Hyundai Tucson following a verbal dispute at around 10 p.m. Oct. 31 on the 8000 block of Frankford Avenue, near Rhawn Street, according to police.
Law enforcement officials said the driver sped away and flagged down officers a couple of miles away, along Frankford Avenue in Torresdale. The victim, a 17-year-old boy, was struck in his right hip and hospitalized in stable condition, the PPD said at the time.
Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to contact the police department’s Shooting Investigations Group at 215-686-8271 or call or text the tip line at 215-686-TIPS (8477). Information can be shared anonymously.
