block of berk street. multiple 911 calls came in after the shots were fired. when police arrived they found the victim on the sidewalk. he had been shot at least once in his head. he was pronounced dead on the scene. police say he had been shot at point blank range while he was on his bike. he was still on it when he collapsed. the shooter then got into a vehicle that had two other men inside. they went south on georges lane from berks. >> city surveillance cameras are one block away at the intersection of 54th and berks. we found private surveillance cameras in the 5300 block of berks. so hopefully these cameras recorded something that can help us with this homicide investigation. >> reporter: they are hoping that those surveillance footage will provide a few more details. only description they have so far on that vehicle that the shooter got into was that it was a dark blue or black sedan. enough any tips the homicide division wants to hear from you. we're live in wynnefield katherine scott, channel6 "action news." >> katherine thank you for that.

it's going to be a close call. we're going 89 and you need 90 for a heat wave. storm tracker6 live double scan shows that you we are dry and as we take a look outside tranquil conditions outside. the farther north you go through the region the better chance you have of the humidity already dropping in philadelphia and points south towards the shore still might feel a little bit humid to you this morning but the winds are in the process of turning are round out of the northwest and we should continue to see some improvement along those lines as we go through the day. 74 degrees is your temperature. your dewpoint 66 degrees so still rather humid in philadelphia. winds still out of the west-southwest at 5 miles per hour. as we take a look at satellite and radar, there is some cloud cover out there but it's high and thin enough where we think we're going get some sunshine in pretty quickly and overall sun mixing with patchy clouds today. as we roll through the day it looks like a warm one 74 degrees by 8 o'clock, 84 by 11 o'clock, 88 by 2 o'clock with a high of 89 around 3 o'clock and if we miss 90 today, it will end our heat wave in eight days. most of the heat wave was not as oppressive as some we had

in the past but it was a little humid over the past couple days. we're looking like we're checking off some squares on that and making things a little better around here. i temperatures. we'll be on the warm side everywhere across the region. not posting any 90's today. 85 in allentown, 87 trenton 88 wilmington and millville 86 in cape may. less humid. a closer look down the shore shows you we once again have a recurrence of rip currents today so swim near lifeguards as is always a good idea. 65 in the ocean right now. little cooler off atlantic city. still 75 off the delaware beaches and around the mouth of the delaware bay. rip currents possibility even down in rehoboth and death bethanybethanybeach. phillies beautiful night for baseball. mainly clear pleasant 83 for the first pitch and 76 degrees in the ninth inning. phillies continues on a roll. tomorrow there is a rain maker, an area of low pressure that's coming at us from the southwest but it's slower to arrive so it looks like we're going to stay dry tomorrow and

then as it is comes by on friday it now looks like it's going to stay far enough south where the northern suburbs could stay dry. philadelphia kind of on the bubble but the best chance of steadier rain is down in south jersey and delaware. so rather than us all getting thumped with heavy rain now looks like most of that may stay farther to the south. we'll keep tracking that to your. 89 today, is that knee less humid. tomorrow sun and clouds, 85 still dry. and then friday our main rain looks like it stays to the south and we get a high of 82. for the weekend it now looks like that system is gone in time to give us a dry saturday morning. it might be cloudy to start out but we should see some sun breaking through and a high of 84. and mostly sunny on sunday, 86. monday's also good. more humid tuesday with a thunderstorm. >> i love mondays. >> i know you do. >> you're by yourself on that. >> thank you david. thank you, tam. 5:40. still on "action news," new video released showing the moment an explosion rocked sunday services at a new mexico church. >> wanted security guards for the pope's visit next month. details on that after the break.
