Jerrell Ingram, a 27-year-old Black male from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was found dead on the morning of September 4, 2014, inside a residence on the 500 block of Allengrove Street. Police were called to the home at about 10:02 a.m., and when officers entered, they discovered a violent scene that had already claimed two lives. Jerrell was located in a rear bedroom of the residence, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the chest.
Philadelphia Fire Department medics responded, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Another man, 26-year-old Jalil Hoskin, was found in the dining room of the same residence. He had been shot in the shoulder and was also pronounced dead at the scene by medics. The placement of the two victims in different rooms suggested that the shooting unfolded inside the home rather than being discovered in one single area, leaving investigators with a residence-turned-crime-scene and two families suddenly facing devastating losses.
Jerrell was listed as residing on Chelten Avenue in Philadelphia. The case was handled by the Philadelphia Police Department under an unsolved murder case number, and police publicly asked for help from anyone who might know something about what happened inside that Allengrove Street residence. Authorities emphasized that even small details could matter and encouraged anonymous tips through the department’s tip line.
No online law-enforcement source located for this case identifies a named suspect, arrest, criminal charges, trial, or conviction connected to Jerrell Ingram’s killing. The available public police information describes the case as open and unsolved, with investigators still seeking information from the public.
