Jael Bravo, 21, was killed in a drive-by shooting the night of Monday, March 13, 2023, in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia. He had been driving a Honda Civic with two other men — his cousin and a friend — and they parked near Girard Avenue and Marshall Street just before 11 p.m. Another vehicle pulled up alongside and at least one person inside opened fire. Bravo was struck by multiple gunshots and taken to Jefferson University Hospital by friends, where he died a short time later.

The two passengers were also wounded: a 21-year-old in critical condition and a 20-year-old with a non-life-threatening leg wound. Officers found the Civic with the engine running and estimated it had been hit about 15 times on the driver’s side. As of early 2024 no arrests had been announced and authorities had not disclosed a motive. His mother, Anna Vasquez, has publicly urged anyone with information to come forward, and the city is offering a $20,000 reward for tips that lead to an arrest and conviction.

If anyone has information about that night or knew Jael, please share what you know.
