A gunman killed a man along a Strawberry Mansion street overnight, leaving his victim face down on the street, said Philadelphia Police.
Officers arrived the Oakdale Street, near Myrtlewood Street, around 1:20 a.m. Thursday to find a 26-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound to the head.
"Medics pronounced him on the scene," said Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small.
Witnesses told officers that a man wearing a hat and dark clothing approached the victim, fired then drove off in a car, said Small.
Investigators found shell casings from two separate guns, said Small.
Police didn’t immediately have a motive for the shooting and hoped that surveillance cameras could help them track down the killer, said police.
