Boy Riding Bike Gunned Down in Philadelphia

ABC news reports that Police are searching for four suspects after a teenager was shot and killed while riding a bicycle in Philadelphia's Strawberry Mansion section.
Police say 17 shots rang out on Sunday afternoon.

The 16-year-old boy and a 15-year-old boy were riding bicycles when the younger boy said they had an altercation with four men in a silver Buick.
They thought it had driven away. But as they were riding down the street, the boys noticed the car pulled over and the shooting started.
The wounded 16-year-old was pronounced dead at a hospital. His name has not been released.
Capt. Nicholas Brown says it could be a road rage incident, but 17 shots is "a lot of shots to fire at two kids on a bike."
