PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Police have released pictures and a video of a suspect they said killed a man last month in the city’s Kensington neighborhood.

The shooting happened more than a week ago, on Sunday, Aug. 23.


In a video clip, the suspect and 35-year-old Michael Scott-Keitt seem to be arguing outside a car with its trunk open.

Then around 5 a.m., authorities said Scott-Keitt was shot in his back, chest and legs along Kensington Avenue and H Street, and was taken to a hospital where he died.

Police hope anyone with information or can help identify the suspect will call their tip line at 215-686-TIPS, even if they remain anonymous.

As always, there is a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
