Kahree Simmons was a 16-year-old African American male who was shot and killed on March 11, 2021, at a recreation center in West Philadelphia. He was playing basketball with friends when four men opened fire; motives remain unclear. His death occurred during a violent 24-hour period in which three teens were murdered in the city.

Philadelphia police have been investigating and have looked at social media as a possible factor, noting many shootings and murders involve heated online exchanges. The community has held vigils and balloon releases for Simmons, and his brother Stephen Simmons has said Kahree did nothing wrong and was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. He is remembered for his love of basketball and his kind-hearted nature.

What information about that evening at the recreation center or about any social media leads can help move this investigation forward?
