Derrick Williams, a 52-year-old Black man, was killed just after midnight on October 27, 2016, on a sidewalk in the 6500 block of North 17th Street in West Oak Lane, Philadelphia. Officers found him unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds after he had reportedly returned from the 76ers season opener; emergency responders took him to Albert Einstein Medical Center where he was pronounced dead that morning. Police described the shooting as execution-style.

The case remains an open, unsolved murder. No suspects or arrests have been publicly identified, and investigators hoped nearby home surveillance might provide leads. Anyone with information that could help identify those responsible is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.
