Siboram Pat Patro, 67, was working the overnight shift at an Exxon mini-mart in the Tacony section of Philadelphia when he was fatally shot in the early morning of January 17, 2023. Surveillance footage shows three masked men entering the store around 4:00 AM; two lingered while a third approached the counter and fired at Patro behind a protective barrier. The same three forced their way into a secured office area, shot Patro in the back, then stole the cash register and fled. Medics pronounced him dead at the scene shortly after.

Patro, an Indian-American who immigrated in 1988, was remembered as kindhearted and well liked by customers and neighbors and often wore an Eagles hat or a 2008 Phillies World Series sweater. On January 25, 2023, police announced arrests in the case: Chiheam Jones, 38, of Philadelphia; Robert Miller-Crafter, 25, of Chester; and Keyon Vincent, 21, of Philadelphia, each charged with murder, robbery, criminal conspiracy and related offenses. A candlelight vigil was held by family and the community.

If anyone who knew Patro or who was in the area that morning has information, please come forward.
