2 charged in Thanksgiving robbery-murder

Police have arrested two men suspected of gunning down a Port Richmond man early Thanksgiving Day during a street robbery gone awry.

David Ramos Jr., 18, of the 5900 block of Torresdale Avenue in Wissinoming, and Keanan Glenn, 21, of Middleton, Del., were charged with murder, robbery and related offenses in the slaying of Ryan Kelly.

Police nabbed Ramos on Jan. 16 in East Frankford, and Glenn last Friday in New Castle, Del.

Kelly, 21, was walking home from a nearby Wawa early Thanksgiving morning when two gunmen jumped out of a car and shot him as they tried to rob him, police said.

Relatives held a candlelight vigil to remember him two weeks ago and told the Star, a community newspaper, that he loved sports, worked at a supermarket's seafood counter and hoped to enroll in a culinary school.
