On the evening of Thursday, November 8, 2018, 15-year-old Trevonte Marks was fatally shot on the 1200 block of South 15th Street in South Philadelphia at about 8:00 p.m., a block from his home. Trevonte was returning from playing basketball with friends when at least three male suspects exited a vehicle and opened fire, discharging a reported 41 rounds. He was struck multiple times and later died at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center. Two other victims, a 16-year-old male and a 20-year-old man, were wounded and expected to survive.

Family described Trevonte as an honor roll student at the Charter High School for Architecture and Design, the oldest of five children who often helped at home and loved basketball and his siblings. His family believes he was not the intended target. Police reviewed area surveillance footage but have not announced any arrests or identified suspects; the Philadelphia Police Department is asking anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear something that night that might help investigators?
