Philadelphia police say a 14-year-old turned himself over to police in connection with a shooting on a Philadelphia train platform.
According to police, the shooting — which left at least one man hospitalized — occurred at the 15th Street Station at 12:20 p.m. on Thursday.
Charles Lawson, SEPTA’s Acting Police Chief, says that the suspect and another man exited an eastbound Market-Frankford Line train at the 15th Street station.
The man and the teen reportedly exchanged words with a third individual on the platform, which resulted in both the shooter and victim drawing firearms.
The victim, a 19-year-old man, was shot in the chest, stomach and hand.
The suspect was able to escape amid a group of passengers running from the station.
Police announced the teenage suspect surrendered with his mother Friday morning.
