Kevin Willis, a 28-year-old Black man from Philadelphia, was killed in the early minutes of Tuesday, August 30, 2016, after gunfire on the 5500 block of Sansom Street in West Philadelphia. Police were called about 12:04 a.m. and found Willis badly wounded by multiple gunshots; he was taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center and pronounced dead later that morning. Willis lived nearby on the 5700 block of Spruce Street, a short distance from where he was found.

The police account available to the public gives few details: no confrontation, motive, getaway vehicle, or the number of people involved is described. Philadelphia police have listed the killing as an unsolved murder and have not publicly identified any arrest, suspect name, or criminal charges. Authorities continue to ask anyone with information to contact the Philadelphia Police Department tip line.

Did anyone in West Philadelphia on the night of August 29–30, 2016, see or hear anything that could help explain what happened to Kevin Willis?
