David Quinn Cobb, a 51-year-old Black man from Philadelphia, was fatally shot on the morning of March 10, 2020, in the Fern Rock section of North Philadelphia. The shooting occurred on the 1300 block of West Chew Avenue near North Broad Street shortly before or around 8:45 a.m. Police said Cobb was struck once in the head; officers found him lying on the sidewalk and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The incident unfolded in a busy area near the Broad Street Line. Reports say Cobb had been speaking with someone when the gunfire erupted and the suspected shooter fled toward the subway. A person in handcuffs was seen being taken from an underground emergency exit along North Broad Street. Police identified 31-year-old Phillip Turner as the suspect and arrested him shortly after on the 5700 block of Broad Street, charging him with murder, robbery, weapons offenses, and related counts; he was held without bail.

Records show Turner remained listed in a Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas case into April 2021, with no publicly documented trial outcome, conviction, or sentence in the materials reviewed. What details about motive or the events leading up to the shooting remain unknown?
