Philadelphia Double Shooting: 22-year-old man killed, another critically injured after being shot on Folsom Street in Mantua

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — One man is dead and another man is in critical condition after a double shooting in the Mantua neighborhood of Philadelphia.

It happened just before 10 p.m. Wednesday at the 3900 block of Folsom Street.

Police arrived at the scene and found a 22-year-old man lying on the sidewalk at the bottom of a house’s steps. He had been shot multiple times in the chest and upper body.

Police took him to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

At the hospital, police learned that a second victim, also a 22-year-old man, had been dropped from a private vehicle.

He had been shot multiple times in the back and was in critical condition.

Police said they received information that this victim was also shot in the same area on Folsom Street.

Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said officers found 17 spent bullet casings at the scene. Some were found on the street and sidewalk, others were spotted on the steps and porch of the home, and several were found inside the home.

“At least eight bullets went through the front door of this property and lodged in the ceiling and walls inside the property,” Small said.

Small said there were people in the home at the time of the shooting, but no one was injured.

Police are unsure if any of the victims were in the home when they were shot.

Small said both victims lived half a block from the shooting.

No arrests were made.
