Roger Marquez, a 31-year-old Hispanic/Latino man from Philadelphia, was killed on the night of November 21, 2023, when a barrage of gunfire erupted on the 3200 block of North Fairhill Street near Allegheny Avenue and North 6th Street. Police were called just after 8:30 p.m.; by the time officers arrived multiple men had been shot, vehicles were struck, and investigators later said at least 70 rounds had been fired.

Marquez was one of seven men struck in the shooting. He and another victim, Leon Pierre, were shot multiple times and taken to Temple University Hospital, where both died. Five other victims, ages 19 to 34, suffered gunshot wounds to the body, chin, neck, leg, and stomach; several were reported in critical condition and one 33-year-old was listed as stable. Police recovered between three and five firearms at the scene and also recovered narcotics. Interim Police Commissioner John Stanford said the block was known for narcotics activity and that authorities believed there may have been multiple shooters. No arrests had been announced and the case remained an active homicide investigation.
