Police identify two S.W. Philly murder suspects

Police have identified two men wanted in connection with a triple shooting that left one woman dead in Southwest Philadelphia yesterday.

Aaron Parker, 37, who also uses the alias Dan Cooper, allegedly opened fire on a crowd of people standing in front of a rowhouse at 53rd Street near Chester Avenue at about 4 p.m. Nyesha Whitney, 23, was killed, and two of her relatives were wounded.

Parker, of Belmar Terrace near 55th Street, is wanted on murder charges. Police are also searching for Jamir "June" Jackson, 37, who is wanted on a charge of solicitation to commit murder. Jackson lives on Litchfield Street near 55th.

According to Dafney's acount in today's Daily News, the triple shooting was the result of a fatal family feud that began last summer, when Nyesha Whitney's cousin, Craig Whitney, allegedly gunned down Anthony Jackson, who is related to Jamir Jackson .

Do the right thing. You can let police know where they are anonymously if you prefer at www.ppdonline.org and click on the tab "reports." Probably a narcotics report will work fine.

dude looks like one of those kids toys where you use a magnet to drag the metal shavings up to give him a beard or some hair.

How did the inner city become such a cesspool? Shootouts, cold blooded murder daily. Where is the outrage? Just accept it and keep on doing things the same way on and on.

You know Mr Crime...er..Clean... is either shacked up with family or fellow thugs somewhere nearby, or does what most violent drug dealers do and hightail it down South to their connections.
