A fatal shooting on the evening of Monday, April 14, 2025, left 47-year-old David Tennant dead in North Philadelphia. The shooting occurred around 7:30 p.m. near the 1500 block of North 18th Street. Tennant was one of three male victims struck by gunfire and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The two other victims were a 32-year-old man and a 39-year-old man; both sustained gunshot wounds to the legs and were taken to local hospitals, the 32-year-old in critical condition and the 39-year-old in stable condition. Witnesses reported hearing approximately 14 to 15 shots, and a nearby bodega owner said he told everyone in the store to take cover as the gunfire started. The motive remains unclear and no arrests have been announced. Tennant is listed on the Gun Violence Memorial and the Philadelphia Obituary Project.
