A man was shot to death Thursday morning outside the Residence Inn on Island Avenue near the Philadelphia International Airport.
His body was under a stairwell around the back of the hotel.
Police searched the trunk of a black Grand Am in the parking lot.
The victim was 28, according to detectives.
There's no information out on possible suspects, motive or whether the victim was a guest at the hotel.
Those details are expected later in the day as investigators learn more.
