PHILADELPHIA - Police have released new video of two suspects they say carried out a drive-by shooting in Germantown that left one person dead and five others injured back in August.
The shooting occurred back on Aug. 19, shortly after 5:30 p.m. on the 5100 block of Germantown Avenue.
Thursday, police released video that shows a dark-colored Chevrolet Impala driving down the block prior to the shooting. The video also shows the vehicle coming to a brief stop, allowing two gunmen to open their doors and fire multiple gunshots into a crowd.
Police say they are looking for two male suspects who were wearing sweatshirts and face coverings at the time of the shooting.
Police say a total of six people were injured by the gunfire. A 28-year-old man, who was shot once in the head during the incident, died at the hospital a short time later.
