Suspect in Philadelphia crash turned shooting seen limping away from crime scene in new footage
PHILADELPHIA - New surveillance footage shared by police Monday shows a shooter wanted for firing down a Kensington street after being knocked off his scooter hobbling away from the crime scene.
Investigators say the unknown suspect was riding a motorized scooter on the 300 block of East Allegheny Avenue last Thursday afternoon when he collided with a turning car.
The crash caused the suspect, described by police as a Hispanic man wearing a gray GAP hoodie and long pants, to be thrown from the scooter and tumble down the road.
The man briefly sits on the side of the road while the car he struck continues to drive away. He then hops to his feet and hobbles down the road while firing a gun.
