Pa. teen killed near where movie to film


PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A Philadelphia teen was fatally shot just around the corner from where a mob movie titled “Dead Man Down” was scheduled to film a scene less than a day later.

Authorities today identified 18-year-old Robert Sneed as the man fatally shot Monday afternoon on a corner in the city’s Frankford neighborhood.

Sneed was shot in the back and side and pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

Police say three people were taken into custody and a gun was recovered after a witness spotted the shooter run into a home near the scene. No charges have been filed.

“Dead Man Down,” a mob movie starring Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace, was scheduled to film nearby starting today. It’s already filmed elsewhere in the city.
