Elderly Man Gunned Down In Philly

Can you tell it’s summer in Philadelphia?
PHILADELPHIA ― Police are investigating the murder of an elderly man in North Philadelphia Friday evening.
Police said a 77-year-old male was shot in the 2000 block of N. 33rd Street in Strawberry Mansion.
According to police, the victim was robbed by three suspects and shot at least once in the head. (H/T – CBS3)
The person or persons who did this should be shot on sight. Shooting a 77-year old man in the head (at least once) deserves an instant death penalty, in my opinion. Bunch of savages in this town.

So sorry Wyatt.
Hope you weren’t involved

TW – I wasn’t personally, as Homicide picked it up early. Still a damned shame. It’s bad enough to rob the man, but to shoot him in the head, too? For what? $20??

The elderly deserve so much respect. To think that an older gentleman lived in a tough area of a tough city for that long died in this manner is sickening.
I know I’m home….

RT – Yeah, not as much of this happening in Nashville. It’s a despicable story, and shows once again that the animals are trying to run this town.

I agree with you Wyatt. Shoot these critters on sight.

Wyatt, doesn’t it change things if you perceive that an elderly person was disrespectful toward you when you were robbing them?
I’m just trying to understand.
