Philadelphia's most wanted: 10 suspects still sought for homicides since 2018
PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia law enforcement are still on the hunt for nearly a dozen suspects wanted in connection to homicides dating back several years.
On Tuesday, the District Attorney's office released the names of 10 fugitives they say have committed deadly crimes in the northwest section of the city since 2018.
"The purpose of the press conference today is, number one, to ensure that families who are still waiting for the capture of their loved one's killer continue to understand how hard the Philadelphia Police Department works on these cases, how hard the DA's office and our federal partners work on these cases. Just because someone has run away does not mean we intend to tolerate that," DA Krasner said.
Philadelphia's most wanted:
- Christopher Sanders is wanted for the murder of 21-year-old Naseem Aleem in September 2018
- Robert Laurie is wanted for the death of 19-year-old Shamir Collier in November 2020

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal is urging residents to remember these names, saying you may let them into your house without knowing they are wanted.
"Look at these people who are walking around our streets. They are wanted for murder," Bilal said. "That means they won't hesitate to do murder again. So we need your help. The community needs your help. We need your help."
Haneef Ali is wanted for shooting and killing Randy Mills, 15, during an argument on a SEPTA bus on Germantown Avenue back in May 2023.
Mills aunt, who asked that we only identify her as Tia, says her nephew did not get a chance to live his life.
"That was my baby we didn’t call him Randy, he was peanut to us, to family," she said. "Randy had just turned 15, Randy was a little boy, moving through puberty, adolescence, trying to make that transition to a young man and into adulthood."
She says the family is not giving up and encourages parents to do the same. "That was just too much, it was uncalled for, somethings gotta’ be done."
If you have any information about the whereabouts of these fugitives, police are asking you to contact them.
