A second suspect sought in the shooting death of a man in the Overbrook neighborhood of Philadelphia last week has surrendered. 15-year-old Tyfine Hamilton turned himself into Philadelphia Police around 2:30 a.m. Friday. His family says Tyfine was off his medication at the time of the shooting and needs help. Police say Hamilton was the triggerman in the fatal shooting.

Authorities say Philadelphia Police drew their weapons and fired a round at a suspect allegedly carrying a shotgun overnight, then chased the suspect on foot in North Philadelphia. This began around 1 a.m. on the 3000 block of North 22nd Street near Indiana Avenue. Police ordered the suspect to drop his weapon. He then reportedly raised his shotgun, which led to one officer firing, but not striking the suspect. The suspect fled to Dougies Cafe, where he ran into a bathroom and removed his shoes and hoodie. He then left the bar and was captured a short time later. The suspect never fired at police.

Saturday is the Fairmount Food Crawl. Fourteen bars in the neighborhood will each offer a different part of a pig to try: shoulder, cheek, nose, the butt. the rib. Included at each location is a complimentary handmade vodka cocktail. A Portion of the proceeds support the Fairmount CDC.
