Police: Man Killed In Double Shooting Outside Holmesburg Bar

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - A 22-year-old man is dead after a double shooting outside a bar in Philadelphia's Holmesburg section. Police responded to the 7400 block of Torresdale Avenue near Ralph's Bar around 11 p.m. Monday.

Police say two men were sitting in a 2005 Cadillac when someone started firing shots at them.

"They pulled up in a car outside the bar. We believe at least one gunman starts firing into the car, as they fire into the car, the car takes off at a high-rate-of-speed and drives down Torresdale Avenue," Philadelphia Police Lt. John Walker said.

The 22-year-old Isheem Campbell was shot in the head, chest, and shoulder. He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The second victim, a 43-year-old man, was shot in the hand and is in stable condition.

Philadelphia police are working with the bar owner to obtain surveillance video, hoping to get a description of the suspects.
