On the night of January 10, 2015, at about 11:23 p.m., three men were found shot in the head in a first-floor apartment on the 4600 block of Vista Street in Philadelphia’s Holmesburg section. Ramon Ortiz, 40, a Hispanic resident of Philadelphia, was one of the victims; the others were 40-year-old Jason Stratos of Bristol and 30-year-old Sarith Mang of Philadelphia. All three were pronounced dead at the scene shortly after 11:35 p.m.

Authorities described the killings as a planned, execution-style triple homicide. A sign on the apartment door reading Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be shot again was reported at the scene, and police say all three victims were known to law enforcement. Investigators have said they suspect a link to a drug operation, but the motive has not been officially determined.

The investigation has remained open with no arrests or publicly identified suspects. Anyone with information that could help solve the case or who knew Ramon Ortiz is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.
