Hakim Rahman, 35, was killed during a home invasion in the Hunting Park neighborhood of Philadelphia on August 22, 2016. Two masked intruders forced entry through a rear kitchen window, demanded money from Rahman and his girlfriend, and opened fire when Rahman did not comply quickly enough. Rahman was shot in the abdomen and died; his girlfriend was shot twice and taken to Temple University Hospital in critical condition.

Rahman was the father of six children aged 5 to 13. The older children were in the same room when he was shot; the younger children heard the gunfire but did not witness it. Police recovered a mask, a shotgun, and a sack of shotgun shells at the scene, and investigators said Rahman may have recognized one suspect’s voice and used a nickname, a detail that could be significant. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains active; police are hoping nearby surveillance footage will help.

If anyone has information about the break-in, the suspects, or relevant footage from the area on August 22, 2016, please come forward.
