20-year-old man dies after getting shot in the head while driving in Frankford

A 20-year-old man was killed after a shooter opened fire as he was driving in the Frankford neighborhood of Philadelphia on Monday night, according to Philadelphia Chief Inspector Scott Small.

The shooting occurred just before 10 p.m. at the 1600 block of Brill Street, where a man driving a Honda Accord crashed into a pile of snow after being shot, Small said.

The man, who has not been identified at this time, was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 10:32 p.m. due to a gunshot wound to the head, Small said.

Private surveillance camera video seen by police show the shooting and showed two men approach the Honda and then one of the men opened fire through the passenger door, shooting the car at least twice, Small said.

SkyForce10 was over the scene and saw that another car had struck the Honda as well, but no injuries have been announced from the subsequent crash.

Two spent shell casings from a semi-automatic weapon were found at the scene, Small said.

The two men who approached the Honda were last seen going westbound from the scene of the shooting, Small said, and have only been described as men wearing dark clothing.
