On the evening of November 22, 2017, the day before Thanksgiving, 27-year-old Hugh Arthur Certaine Jr. was found lying in the street at 68th and Greenway Avenue in Philadelphia after suffering multiple gunshot wounds. Two other men, aged 26 and 37, were also wounded in the same violent outburst; all three were taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center where Hugh Certaine was pronounced dead that evening.

The Philadelphia Police Department opened an investigation into the triple shooting but initially identified no suspects and made no arrests. The investigation remained active, and as of early 2026 the case was still unsolved; law enforcement offered a reward of up to $20,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Hugh, known to family as Hughie, was a father and a welding student at the Philadelphia Technician Training Institute, remembered by relatives for his humor and devotion to his son.

Does anyone who lived near 68th and Greenway Avenue or who knew Hughie in 2017 have information that could help investigators?
