Philadelphia police release video of street fight that ended in fatal shooting, seek help in hunt for suspect

Philadelphia police are still searching for a suspect from a deadly February shooting, releasing surveillance video Monday in hopes of identifying the gunman.

The newly released footage shows the victim’s car rolling to a stop on Upland Street before the unnamed victim and another man exit the vehicle and engage in a southwest Philadelphia fist fight Thursday, Feb. 26. During the altercation, police say one fatal shot was fired into the victim’s stomach.

“The vehicle is registered to the 40-year-old shooting victim, so it is his vehicle,” Philadelphia Police Department chief inspector Scott Small said in February, Fox 29 Philadelphia reported. “We don’t know the circumstances surrounding his being shot.”

The newly-released video shows a man in a white or light-colored shirt pummeling someone in a dark shirt or jacket who was on his back outside the vehicle. More video released shows the man in the darker top fleeing the scene.
