Darryl Singleton was 24 when he was shot multiple times behind his childhood home on Hoffman Street in Southwest Philadelphia on September 13, 2016. Officers found him severely injured and he was taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, where he died a day before what would have been his 25th birthday. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved; a reward is being offered for information that could lead to an arrest.

Darryl’s family remember him as a connector who kept everyone together. He attended Freire Charter School, went to a two-week CSI camp tied to Johns Hopkins, and was training to become an EMT through All-State Career School in Delaware County with clinicals about to start. A service was held at Southwest Philadelphia Seventh-Day Adventist Church and he was buried at Mount Lawn Cemetery in Sharon Hill.
