BREWERYTOWN (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police are asking for the public to help identify the suspect in a shooting in the Brewerytown section.

Authorities say the gunman parked his burgundy 4-door Jeep Wrangler along the 2600 block of Cecil B. Moore Avenue Monday night.

He got out and approached the victim, but was then convinced to get back in to his car by an unknown person.

As the suspect drove away, police say he fired two shots at the victim, hitting him the leg.

The victim is recovering, but the motive for the shooting is still not known.
