Philadelphia Police Captain Jason Smith said as Beauregard passed the suspect, the gunman quickly turned around and immediately began firing at the victim as his back was turned towards him.
The 23-year-old was struck once in the base of his neck, severing his spinal cord, Smith said.
Beauregard collapsed onto the sidewalk. Smith said the suspect began to run off but fired one more shot at the victim.
The gunman was last seen running northbound on 35th Street toward Spring Garden Street.
No words were exchanged between the two. Police believe Beauregard was picked at random.

"Tragically, Mr. Beauregard's life was cut short by this horrific act of violence and for no apparent reason whatsoever. This was not a robbery attempt as we initially believed," Smith said.
Family members said Beauregard was finalizing plans to begin his MBA in the winter and was proud of a leadership role in support of the Democratic Party during the 2020 presidential election
