PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Philadelphia police are searching for a killer who targeted a teenager at a gas station. The deadly shooting happened around midnight Friday at the Lukoil on 58th and Baltimore Avenue in Southwest Philadelphia.
Police say officers found the 19-year-old victim unresponsive near a gas pump. He had been shot multiple times in his face and chest.
