Man, 21, shot and killed in Fox Chase home invasion
A 21-year-old man was shot and killed during a home invasion in the Fox Chase section of Philadelphia.
Police were called to the 1200 block of Fuller Street just before 11:30 p.m. Thursday.
Arriving officers found the victim shot to death on the couch in the living room.
Investigators believe someone jumped out of a second-floor window during the shooting and left the scene.
"This is the far Northeast, the 7th district, a very quiet and normally very peaceful neighborhood. Very unusual for a shooting to take place in this area," Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said.
