Shooting victim ID'd
A man who was killed over the weekend when the car he was riding in was riddled by bullets has been identified as Joseph Hernandez, 24, of Helen Street near Ontario. Hernandez was one of three men in a Chevy Tahoe who were shot when a car pulled up alongside them at a traffic light at Lehigh Avenue near 2nd Street in West Kensington about 1:40 a.m. Sunday, according to police. A 23-year-old passenger who was shot in the shoulder was listed in critical but stable condition and another 23-year-old passenger was treated for a hand wound.
Usama Eason, 25, and a 33-year-old man, both of Camden, were shot about 4 p.m. at 32nd and Freemont streets, yesterday. Eason was pronounced dead at Cooper University Hospital shortly afterward. The 33-year-old drove a truck from the scene, but crashed in the parking lot of a bar at Marlton Pike and Highland Avenue in Pennsauken. He was found dead in his vehicle.
Call it 'spillover' from Philadelphia, since Philly's running out of victims. And Camden's proximity, and ease of travel to, and back, make murderers from the PA side add a modicum of varitey to their score cards.
