On May 6, 2023, around 5:35 p.m., Philadelphia police responded to reports of gunfire in the 6700 block of Torresdale Avenue in Tacony. Officers found 44-year-old Juan Salcedo-Collazo with a fatal gunshot wound to the head; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Nearby, 42-year-old Arthur Spiller was discovered with a gunshot wound to the right abdomen and was taken to Jefferson-Torresdale Hospital, where he died around 6:15 p.m.

The double homicide was captured on surveillance video that investigators have reviewed, but no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. Friends and family described Spiller as funny, silly, big-hearted, lovable, loyal and fun to be around; the memorial noted he was a father. The Philadelphia Police Department continues to investigate and is urging anyone with information to come forward.

Does anyone in Tacony who knew Arthur or was in the area that evening have information that could help investigators?
