A quadruple shooting at a North Philadelphia playground Friday night took the lives of two men and left two others fighting for their lives. Children were playing nearby and neighbors are frustrated with the ongoing heightened level of violence.
The shooting happened Friday night, around 6 p.m. Authorities say two young men were injured, while 22-year-old Nyreese Moore and 24-year-old Nassir Folk were killed.
"This young man was a good man. He was trying to take care of his family and start a family. Always with a smile on his face, always happy," Boswell commented. The violence spilled into the neighborhood, bullets going everywhere, crashing through car windows. Police said it was surprising there weren’t more injuries.
"When that one hit the wall, that’s when I was walking toward my window," a woman named Tonya said. "The wall shook and I jumped. But, my grandkids were out here, so I had to come out." There are several cameras on the court and police say they could see five shooters get out of a vehicle and start firing while the victims were playing basketball.
