Police Identify Suspect in Northern Liberties Shooting (PHOTO)

Police are looking for a suspect in Tuesday night’s armed robbery that left a man in critical condition.

Christoper Easter, 20, was recognized by a tipster after police released surveillance footage of the suspect walking around the neighborhood near the time he allegedly followed the victim, 29, home from a bar around 2:45 a.m. and shot him in the neck on the 700 block of Bodine Street near Fairmount Avenue after demanding cash.

Easter has a large tattoo on his neck that reads “North Philadelphia” and may be armed. Police say his last known address is on the 1500 block of Poplar Street.

Anyone with information is asked to call 911, or contact the Central Detective Division at 215-686-3093 or 3094.
