Police are looking for four teens in the shooting death Wednesday night of a 17-year-old youth outside his home in Darby Borough.
Ollie Cloyd had just returned from walking his dog about 11 p.m. when he went back outside and was cut down in a hail of gunfire on the 200 block of North Ninth Street, police said.
Police Chief Robert Smythe said the shooting did not appear to be random, but he would not offer a possible motive. Three of the assailants fled on bicycles, police said, adding that they appeared to be in their late teens.
