Police in Philadelphia released new surveillance video on Thursday in the hopes of tracking down a gunman who shot a man in West Philly late last month.<\/p>\n
On social media, early Thursday, the Philadelphia Police Department released surveillance footage of an incident that happened along the 5200 block of Sansom Street on Sept. 22, 2026. <\/p>\n
In the footage, a man — described by police as having a stocky build and wearing a light gray quarter-zip jacket, dark green cargo pants, black or dark blue and gray sneakers, tan and brown snap-back ball cap with brown oval logo, a black balaclava mask and a black backpack with white \u2018HUSKY\u2019 brand logo at the time of the shooting — can be seen walking along a sidewalk.<\/p>\n
At some point, as seen in the surveillance footage, the man turns on his heels, raises a handgun and fires one shot before running off into the distance. <\/p>\n
In this incident, officials said, a 57-year-old man was shot in the leg. <\/p>\n
