Hason Mason, 23, was killed in a brazen shooting just after 6 p.m. on October 9, 2025, at Broad Street and Packer Avenue in South Philadelphia. Responding officers found him shot multiple times in the face and body; he was taken to Jefferson Hospital and pronounced dead. A second 23-year-old man suffered a torso wound and staggered into a nearby bar for help; he was taken to Penn Presbyterian in stable condition.

Investigators found more than twenty shell casings at the scene and a four-door sedan tied to the victims idling with its driver’s side and rear windshield punched through by at least fifteen rounds. Police said one or both men may have been inside that car when the shooting began; the sedan clipped another vehicle as it lurched away but the woman in that vehicle was not hurt. Detectives said the shooter or shooters fled in a silver or dark-colored SUV and no arrests had been announced.

The corner known for Chickie’s & Pete’s and the stadium traffic was left cordoned off with markers and shattered glass. If anyone was in that area that evening or has information about the SUV or the people involved, please share what was seen.
