Law enforcement officials in Philadelphia are investigating after a man was found unresponsive in Southwest Philadelphia late Monday after he had been shot four times.
Small said the man had been shot in the face, torso, arm and leg, and officers immediately transported the individual to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced at about 12:05 a.m. "We found 14 spent shell casings from a large caliber, semi-automatic gun. So, we know at least 14 shots were fired. Most of these 14 shell casings were found just a few inches from where this victim was laying, some were just a few feet from where the victim was laying," said Small."So, clearly, the shooter or shooters were standing very, very close to this victim when the shots were fired.
