Officers who arrived at the scene of the deadly shooting found David Padro, Jr., 23, shot in the back. He died at the hospital.
Padro's father said his son and his girlfriend were in Philadelphia to go to a nightclub and had stopped for a bite to eat. The district attorney's office told reporters that witnesses said the fight was over a parking space, despite initial reports that it stemmed from a football rivalry.
Defense attorney A. Charles Peruto Jr. has said Burkert acted in self-defense, saying he was "getting pummeled" and calling the shooting "a necessary action to prevent serious bodily injury to himself."
Police had been looking for a woman they say drove Burkert away from the scene in a van. They did not initially specify if Frick is the woman.
