On May 6, 2023, at about 5:35 p.m. police responded to 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 at 5:44 p.m. A second victim, 42-year-old Arthur Spiller, was shot in the right abdomen, taken to Jefferson-Torresdale Hospital, and died around 6:15 p.m. A 20-year-old male also suffered gunshot wounds to the right leg and a graze wound to the chest and was hospitalized in stable condition.

Surveillance footage shared on social media shows a group of about seven people near a storefront when a physical altercation began, one person produced a firearm and opened fire, and another appeared to take cover and return fire. Investigators confiscated a vehicle and a weapon linked to the incident, and an arrest has been made though officials have not released the suspect’s identity or the charges. The killings were among 43 homicides recorded in Philadelphia that May.

If anyone witnessed the shooting near Torresdale Avenue that evening or has information about Juan Salcedo-Collazo, please share what is known with investigators.
