$25,000 Reward Offered In West Philadelphia Grocery Store Murders

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The City of Philadelphia is offering a $25,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of the two suspects involved in a triple murder in West Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Police say the suspects gunned down 50-year old Porfirio Nunez, 40-year-old Johanna Duran and 48-year-old Lina Sanchez as they were closing up Lorena's Grocery located in the 800 Block of North 50th Street. Police say the killers spared Nunez's two daughters, but only after forcing one of them to watch the killings.

Police have released a photo of a white Ford van with two right-side cargo doors. It was found in the area around the time when the homicides took place.

If you have any information contact police at 215-686-3334.
