Philadelphia shooting

The incident of Philadelphia shooting which happened last Monday took the life of five innocent passersby instantly . Now police are speculating that the Philadelphia shooting is not a crime of a spur of the moment but a crime of a thoroughly planned and cold blooded murder. But according to the District Attorney this investigation can be drawn for a long period of time as police have to unearth more detailed accounts and proofs against the perpetrator who has been arrested from the crime scene and will be tried for murder charges of those five people.

The man named Kimbrady Carriker, aged 40 was solely responsible for this attack. He was wearing a bullet proof jacket and a ski mask for self protection when he started indiscriminate firing towards people and cars at the road of his locality. Police is looking thoroughly in the social media accounts of Carriker to know about the mental condition or illness of him. The district attorney of Philadelphia claimed that from his social media accounts it is perceived that perhaps the murderer is not a person of sound mental condition.

Suspect Has Used Ghost-Gun For Philadelphia Shooting

During the investigation of the Philadelphia shooting the culprit confessed to police that he used a weapon known as a ghost gun to commit this crime. The ghost guns are unauthorized guns which can be assembled from a kit at one’s own place. The authorities of Philadelphia have gone to court against such companies after this incident. Within these seven months of the current year there have already been around 360 such shooting-related crimes. Gun-related violence needs to be dealt with stricter gun laws lawmakers are however divided on the contention.
