Philadelphia police are hoping the public can help identify two men wanted after a broad daylight shooting in West Philly.
On Tuesday, police released surveillance footage of the shooting, which occoured at about 1:14 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 25, near 52nd and Irving streets.
According to police, officers in the 18th District responding to the shooting found an injured 19-year-old man on the second floor of an apartment building on the 5000 block of Locust St. suffering from a gunshot wound to his buttocks.
Police said that he was transported to Presbyterian Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition.
In surveillance video that was taken that day along the 5200 block of Irving St., two males can be seen running down the street, with one of the males firing a handgun at something off-camera, police said.
