Joel Montanez was 18 when he was shot and killed on the night of Wednesday, July 27, 2016, on the 2700 block of North Darien Street in the Fairhill section of North Philadelphia. Police responded around 11:20 p.m. to reports of a person with a gun and found Montanez on the sidewalk; medics pronounced him dead at the scene. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds.

A 37-year-old man was also found shot in the abdomen inside a nearby house and was taken to Temple University Hospital in stable condition. At the time of initial reporting, police had not identified suspects or a motive and no arrests had been announced.

Does anyone who was in Fairhill that night or who knew Joel have information that could help clarify what happened?
