3rd person charged in West Philly shooting that killed 2, wounded 3 others
Nysir Mahoney, 24, was charged with murder, attempted murder, and other offenses in the March 30 shooting at 60th and Delancey Streets.
A third person has been charged in a March shooting that killed two men and wounded three others in West Philadelphia, court records show.
Nysir Mahoney, 24, was charged with murder, attempted murder, and other offenses in the March 30 shooting at 60th and Delancey Streets, court records show.
Mahoney was being held without bail at Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility. A court-appointed attorney listed for Mahoney declined to comment on the case.
Two other men, Andre Bowie, 22, and Marquis Andrews, 23, also have been charged in the case.
Police said several assailants drove in a Mercedes to 60th and Delancey Streets on the night of March 30 and opened fire on a group of people standing outside a corner bar, wounding three and killing Paul “PJ” Cobb and Naasir Boyd, both 24.
More than a dozen shots were fired from three 9mm handguns, police said. Police later found the Mercedes on fire on the 1200 block of Cumberland Street.
Police investigators believe the March 30 shooting was motivated by a feud and led to a retaliatory shooting that mistakenly killed 20-year-old Imani Ringgold, who was walking with a slice of pizza and talking to her grandmother on the phone when she was shot on Market Street near 60th in April.
She was an innocent bystander and had no connection to the feud, police said.
