Three people were shot in a matter of just six hours last night in the city, one which left a man dead after being shot in a North Philadelphia schoolyard.
Investigators say the first victim was shot multiple times in the chest at the Anna B Pratt Elementary School at 22nd and Dauphin Streets around 9:30 p.m. Sunday.
Tyrone Ronald Sturgis, 29, was able to walk a short distance before he collapsed, according to authorities.
Sturgis died a short time later at Temple University Hospital.
"We found eight spent shell casings in the parking lot of Pratt Elementary school," said police Chief Inspector Scott Small.
Small said investigators planned to look at school surveillance in hopes to learn more about possible suspects.
The bloody night continued at 11 p.m. when three men opened fire on a man along the 2100 block of Simon Street in the city's Wissinoming neighborhood.
