SOUTH PHILADELPHIA - Two suspects are sought in the June shooting death of a 30-year-old man in South Philadelphia, officials announced Monday.

The taller man is seen as apparently limping as they evacuate the location. It isn’t known whether that man was injured in the incident.
Police caution that infrared lighting can alter the appearance of clothing and skin tone, possibly making their appearance lighter than they really are.
Anyone with information on either of the two men pictured are asked to contact 911 immediately and Homicide Unit at 215-686-3334 or 215-686-3335.
The City of Philadelphia is offering a $20,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and conviction.
