Kyrell Tyler was 23 when he was found shot multiple times inside a black Chevrolet Monte Carlo on the 2100 block of South 60th Street in Southwest Philadelphia on October 14, 2014. He was taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and pronounced dead at 1:32 p.m. The shooting followed a report of a person with a gun at that location.

No arrests have been made and the Philadelphia Police Department has not released suspect descriptions. A $20,000 reward has been offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Rumors that Tyler was shot by a police officer were publicly denied by Lieutenant John Stanford as completely inaccurate. Friends and family held a candlelight vigil at 48th Street and Westminster Avenue; Tyler was well known in the local dirt bike community and had a large social media following for his stunt videos.

Anyone with information about DC# 14-12-078415 is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department and help bring justice for Tyler’s family.
