Malik A. Bell Jr., 17, was shot and killed just after 12:40 a.m. on Friday, June 17, 2022, on the 2500 block of South 61st Street in Philadelphia. Police found him lying in the street with multiple gunshot wounds; paramedics took him to Penn Presbyterian Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 1:06 a.m.

Surveillance footage obtained during the investigation shows a sequence police described as execution-style. One person is seen shooting at the tire of a parked pickup truck, then a second individual picks up the same gun, approaches Bell as he was leaving a store with food, gets within close range and fires multiple shots at his head. Despite that video evidence, no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified.

The Philadelphia Police Department continues to investigate and is asking for the public’s help in identifying the people seen in the footage. If anyone has information that could help, please share it with investigators.
