One bullet was fired through the rear driver's side window of the Dodge sedan and traveled across the vehicle striking the victim.
Police say the 33-year-old driver put the car in reverse and took off. The vehicle crashed into two traffic light poles before coming to a stop on the median.
"We don't know at this time if he was the intended target, if the vehicle was the intended target or if this was stray gunfire," Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said. Police say medics had to force the passenger door window to get to the passenger and that's when they noticed he had been shot."We believe he cut his hands while forcing his way out of the vehicle, he cut his hands on the driver door window," Small said.Surveillance cameras in the area of the shooting are being checked to see if they can shed light on the identity of the shooter.
