On the morning of October 12, 2023, 32-year-old Lejon Alexandre was found lying unresponsive on the 200 block of West Ashdale Street in Philadelphia after a reported shooting. He was taken to Albert Einstein Medical Center with a gunshot wound and later died of his injuries. A 56-year-old man was also shot in the abdomen in the same incident and was transported to the same hospital in stable condition.

Alexandre, remembered by family as 1 Mann the Haitian Jamaican sensation, had recently earned his Commercial Driver’s License and planned to start a trucking business called The Middlemen. Relatives described him as outgoing, positive, a loving uncle and godfather; they are now left grieving and seeking answers.

No arrests have been announced and police have not identified suspects. Anyone with information that could help solve Alexandre’s murder is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.
