Damn shame right? With his back-story, he may've been seen as a soft target.
I don't doubt that.
I don't doubt that.
So he was active like that? Seems like they made an effort not to have him all in front of the camera.
Im gonna post more info about this.
There's a lot of shit that happened which lead to his death.
There's video floating around showing him fucking two buls up at once. Streets saying he had one foot in and one foot out. Shis is crazy that they killed him in front of his mom.
Right, a lot of these dudes can't fight, that why they shoot.
Philly got one of the best boxers in the city and have plenty of boxing gyms to train at.
There was a event called gloves up guns down, having these dudes who got beef to fight it out instead of killing each other.
Guess I didn't think about it that deeply. Makes since that he did some foul shit to go out like that.
I was told by a good source that he has bodies.
The fact that they killed him in front of his mom speaks volumes.
The fact that they killed him in front of his mom speaks volumes.
Damn, people always making dudes out here like they were a good kid.
These dudes don't be getting killed for no reason when they were the intended target doing dirt.
Noah Scurry, 17-year-old student athlete killed in a shooting outside his North Philly home, remembered as ‘exceptional’
Police have recovered what they believe is a getaway car involved in the fatal shooting of Noah Scurry, a 17-year-old student athlete gunned down outside his North Philadelphia home as he was getting ready to go to school on Tuesday morning.
Investigators found the white Jeep Cherokee on Wednesday morning near Summerdale and Godfrey Avenues, less than two miles from where Scurry was killed, on the 5000 block of Rorer Street in Feltonville, said Deputy Commissioner Frank Vanore. The SUV appeared to have been damaged in a crash, he said, and investigators were searching for additional surveillance footage of the vehicle and the shooting.
Police did not release a motive for the shooting and continued to search for Scurry’s killer. No weapon was recovered, but investigators were seeking a search warrant for the Jeep, Vanore said.
Scurry had grabbed his backpack and was getting into his mother’s car in the driveway of their Rorer Street home when he was shot multiple times in a volley of at least 20 bullets, Vanore said.
It is unclear how many people fired at Scurry, Vanore said, but surveillance footage shows there were several people inside the Jeep.
Scurry was rushed to Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital, where he was pronounced dead minutes later, succumbing to gunshot wounds in his chest and abdomen, police said.
In a GoFundMe set up to help Scurry’s family defray funeral costs, Scurry’s cousin Breanna McGlynn described the teen as having a sharp mind and an infectious smile.
“Noah, only 17 years old had such a caring and loving heart,” McGlynn wrote. “He would do anything for his family, but most of all his siblings.”
Tributes to Scurry poured in on social media from friends heartbroken by his sudden death.
“Speechless! I love you,” wrote one friend, who posted photos with Scurry.
At Samuel Fels High School, where Scurry took AP classes, had the highest SAT score in the school, and was a nimble point guard on the basketball team, students and staff were in mourning. The high school on Langdon Street held counseling and quiet space in the auditorium Wednesday, school officials said on Instagram.
“The greatest gift of support we have is each other,” the school said. “Be kind to each other, today and always.”
In a statement released hours after Scurry’s death, school principal Melissa Rasper offered condolences to Scurry’s friends and family and spoke of the loss that reverberated throughout the Fels community.
“Ours is a tight-knit community, and I know that this is difficult news to receive even when it doesn’t occur on school property,” Rasper wrote.
Scurry was an “exceptional student,” said Monique Braxton, spokesperson for the School District of Philadelphia.
Much of Scurry’s social media included highlight reels of his games, where he would cross over opponents with ease, power through layups, and sink three-pointers effortlessly.
“He’s the kind of student everyone wants,” Braxton said.
In a statement, the school district condemned the gun violence that continues to pervade Philadelphia and offered support to Scurry’s friends and family.
There have been 30 shooting victims this year, said Jackie Golden, deputy director of policy for the City Controller’s office. Of those 30 victims, five were 18 years old or younger, she said.
Anyone with information about Scurry’ death is asked to call the police department’s homicide unit at 215-686-3334 or the tipline at 215-686-8477. A reward of $20,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
The decision making is where these new youngins fk up. I remember being 1 foot in during early high school. My man got clapped right by me. Decided to hang with school friends and my homies from the block understood. I was an athlete with grades and shit, they were Deep in it. The love stayed the same though
Philly is still out of control and innocent kids being killed unfortunately is not a taboo in Philly.
same shit, different day. Niggas killing niggas, wanting to blame white folks, lack of jobs, no education, etc. x fucking certera!! all we (black men) do is kill each other (other black men), blame shit on anything and everything except for the largest & most consisten killers of of black men which are black men. I swear it's hard being black because my spirit is constantly in turmoil over the degree we disregard each other (black man to black man). I understand why whitefolks want to kill us, but never could, can or will understand, why we stay actively & consistenly kill each other (black man to black man). ps. don't come for me with the tired, weak as reasonings or excuses.
There eas a reason his Single Mother was walking him to school, and I will leave it at that.
Damn, I hadn't heard that. This shit is WILD if true. I guess it would line up since where Cheese got killed (M24 territory) is beefing with the niggas Noah ran with (CC//Whackers). Folks been speculating that it was some Frankford niggas who did it anyway. I never thought Cheese was the target, just was there when some goofies did the drill.
Cheese was never the target, he was just at the wrong place, at the wrong time. Gillie tried to tell cheese to stay away from the streets but he wouldn't listen.
You’re really a terrible human being.
George Washington was a good man.
Bruh, 17 days into 2025, and already there have been 30 murders? I don't even want to know how high the numbers are in a "good" year.
Bruh, my Pop used to say the same shit to me. He gang warred in the 70s. He was part of The Valley (21st & Montgomery/22nd & Lippincott). He knew better but my goofy ass used to be right out on that corner no matter what he said. Right up in them dice games. Right at Eagle Bar, Eddie's, The Stinger. I'm blessed I didn't get caught up in some shit. Also blessed switches weren't a thing back then AND niggas still obeyed some codes.
I used to be on them corners as well just hanging out, me and my friends would play dice gambling or card games. Some of them was selling weed with a illegal burner, but I never got shot nor had to serve time in jail. Yes, I'm lucky to still be alive with no record.
I remembered that night like it was yesterday that could've changed my life forever with me having a criminal record but my pops told me he had something to do and to come with him to help, so that evening I found out my homie was in jail because his friend had a illegal gun in his car when they got pulled over which made me glad that I wasn't there at the time.
In Philly? I’m only seeing 12 deaths on the cop website. Crime has decreased every year since 2022.
See above for my source of data.
EDIT - Ok, I see what you're saying. Maybe not all of those 30 people died. But 30 people shot in the first 17 days of this year is a significant amount.

Damn about to call my aunt to see if she heard about this....She live in North Philly....
I'm sure she did heard of this if she watches the news.
I'll say it a lot of them O.Gs are or was fuck niggas doing a whole bunch of fuck shit including steering the younger dudes into prison or an early grave .
I wouldn't listen to them either.Mother 60+ barely striving and getting by.
Yeah yeah I know stay out of prison and don't get killed,OK(while he's lucky to even be here still on earth).
I understand what you mean but then again, I'm talking about OG's who wasn't into no street shit giving advice.
How you an OG that wasn’t in the streets? They’re isn’t a Devry Institute for the School or Hard Knocks.
The streets won’t do you as Harvard did Martin Delany.
Yeah people get shot. I’m kinda ignorant. I don’t think the majority of folks who were shot didnt not know they were going to get shot. Let me put it another way: if you got shot, there’s a good probability the person who shot you, shot you for a reason and you know that.
I know a guy who was almost lined up. They shot him in the leg to slow him down then they stood over him. The gun jammed and they reminded him that he caused all of it. A couple surgeries and he don’t go around there no more.
