Philadelphia officials have released a video that shows moments from the fatal shooting of a teen who was walking his dog with another man over the weekend.

Once at the scene, officers found a seriously injured victim and was taken to Temple University Hospital. He was declared brought dead at 9:16 pm, police said.
New surveillance video leading up to the fatal shooting provides additional details surrounding the attack, including at least two people involved in carrying out the attack, as well as a general description of the suspect and the identity of the getaway vehicle.
Investigators say the suspect watched the victims for several minutes before carrying out the attack, and the video montage appears to confirm this information.
In the video, officers said the suspect and at least one other person were in a dark-colored Dodge Challenger parked on the street next to the victims before it was parked further down the street.
Once the victim and the other person cross the challenger, the suspect, dressed in all black, walks out and runs towards them across the street.

The sportscar then moves closer to the victims, the suspect walks out and fires a gun at least three times.
