Family members of a Philadelphia father and son who police say were killed in a drive-by shooting last weekend gathered to share memories and demand answers.
"You can't believe this is actually happening," said Karaina Beckett. "No parent should be burying their child, that's how we feel, and it's a senseless crime."
Jerry and Jamel were both struck several times by gunfire and died at different hospitals, police said. Investigators believe the shooter knowingly targeted Jerry, but they did not share a motive for the shooting. . Authorities say over a dozen people were killed, which pushed Philadelphia past the grim milestone of 200 homicides this year.
