Yeah, I believe that (Shibe Park/Connie Mack Stadium) was just a few blocks from the scene of this crime (if memory serves).   Home of the Phillies (and before that, the Philadelphia Athletics -- before my time!)   I remember they used to have a wall in right field, instead of seats!

Location is about a mile west of the house that was used as Rocky Balboa's home in the original Rocky.

Yes, it’s a good possibility that he was the original victim.

Temple University student Jessica Nace was passing through the neighborhood when she noticed a crowd beating on a man in a car in front of her.

“They were pounding him and hitting him, beating him up in the car,” said Nace. “Then they pulled him out of the car and he was on the ground and they were kicking him and stuff.”

She said that’s when the suspect in the Buick, apparently the brother of the man being beaten, drove his car into the crowd....

“And then some people from the neighborhood pulled the 44-year-old driver out of the vehicle and assaulted him....
**********************************************************
Jeez, it sounds like the named “perp” was trying to defend his brother from a mob of ferals who had dragged him from their car. There’s clearly a side of this story not being told.

He was guilty of driving through a bad neighborhood without a gun

Connie Mack Stadium. My father and some of his uncles used to take me and my cousins to Phillies games there in the ‘50’s and early ‘60’s. I saw many of the greats and loved the stadium.

:: a 44-year-old man intentionally trying to hit people with his car following an altercation. ::

Key point...”following an altercation”.
Looks like some homies didn’t want him to drive away.
He was gonna get his azz beat whether he crunch a few thugs or not.

According to the article, the homies were beating the piss out of his brother who they had dragged from the car. This was BEFORE the “automobile assault”. There’s much NOT being covered in this article.

He might have been attacked in his car first.

They were pounding him and hitting him, beating him up in the car," said Nace. "Then they pulled him out of the car and he was on the ground and they were kicking him and stuff."

She said that's when the suspect in the Buick, apparently the brother of the man being beaten, drove his car into the crowd.

Apparently he was.....
