Louis Louie Irish DeLuca, 51, was shot and killed in South Philadelphia on May 24, 1990. The attack happened near his home around Shunk Street; witnesses found him in or near his Cadillac after sudden, close-range gunfire. Police recovered firearms at the scene and DeLuca died shortly after at Methodist Hospital.

Family recollections portray DeLuca as a lifelong South Philadelphian, a hardworking garment-industry figure and family man who also became involved in holding cocaine and possibly loansharking by the mid-1980s. Does anyone who knew Louie Irish or his circle have details that could shed light on what happened that morning?
