Suspect in Doll Mask Filmed Chasing, Terrorizing Woman in Philadelphia: Police
Police say the suspect filmed the encounters and threatened at least six people, while one jogger was injured fleeing the chase.
- On Monday, the Philadelphia Police Department launched a search for a masked suspect who allegedly harassed at least six people near Philadelphia City Hall last Wednesday. Capt. Jason Smith said the individual wore a distinctive "Chucky" Halloween mask.
- Surveillance footage from last Wednesday shows the suspect filming encounters for "his own purposes" during a nearly 20-minute spree. He blocked a jogger's path and asked if she was "ready to die," causing her to injure her leg while fleeing.
- At 5:20 a.m., the suspect entered a Dunkin' on the 1500 block of Chestnut Street but was refused service due to his mask. Police describe the individual as a thin Black male, approximately 5 feet 8 inches tall, aged 16 to 20.
- Investigators are scouring social media to identify the suspect, who faces charges including terroristic threats and simple assault upon apprehension. Smith urged victims to call 215-686-TIPS, noting that while six people were targeted, only one has reported the incident.
- Local workers expressed concern over the "disturbing" encounters, with some questioning whether the acts were part of an online prank. Officials warned potential offenders that they are actively working to locate the suspect in Philadelphia.
