A teenage boy who was a top student and basketball player was shot and killed in the alleyway behind his North Philadelphia rowhome as he was getting into the car with his mom Tuesday morning, officials say.
Several shots were fired at the 17-year-old — who family and later police identified as Noah Scurry — behind the Rorer Street rowhomes, near Roosevelt Boulevard, in the Feltonville neighborhood just before 7:15 a.m. on Jan 14, 2025, Philadelphia police said.
Scurry was getting into a car to go to school at Samuel Fels High School with his mom when he was shot, School District of Philadelphia spokesperson Monique Braxton said.
