Authorities said they did not know if he was the intended target.
"We know that he didn't live in that specific area. He lived about two miles away in the Northeast part of Philadelphia. We don't know at this time what he was doing in that area," Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said.

Timm's brother, Nahjair Corey, tells Action News the teen was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.
"I see this every day and it never really clicked until it happened to me, so I cried all night and haven't been asleep really yet," said Corey.
No arrests have been made.
