A late-night ambush at a small takeout restaurant left two people dead and a third critically wounded. Kristie Manago, 43, was inside the Shangri-La Chinese Restaurant on the 5400 block of Chester Avenue in Kingsessing/Southwest Philadelphia when at least 16 shots were fired from outside into the takeout area just before 11:30 p.m. on January 17, 2023. Manago, who lived nearby on Chester Avenue, was found with gunshot wounds and taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center; one report says she was pronounced dead shortly after midnight on January 18, 2023.

Two other people were struck: 19-year-old Johron Jones, who also died of his injuries, and a 20-year-old man who was hospitalized in critical condition. Surveillance footage showed two masked suspects walking near the restaurant; one fired repeatedly into the business while the other pointed a gun. Early investigators thought Manago may have been an unintended victim. Police publicly sought the two suspects and offered a $40,000 reward.

Did anyone in the Kingsessing area see the two masked figures or have dashcam or doorbell footage from that night?
