Crime Fighters 6abc: Daniel Brown wanted after Neal Isaiah Moore was shot in Philadelphia in 2023

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — A grieving mother is asking the public for help in locating a suspect accused of shooting her son in Philadelphia last year.

Neal Isaiah Moore was known by the name Isaiah or his nickname.

“Zeke, in the neighborhood he was Zeke,” said his mother, Rose Moore.

The 36-year-old was well known in the area of ​​the 1500 block of 67th Avenue in the West Oak Lane neighborhood.

“He's lived in this neighborhood his whole life. We've tried many times to get him out of there,” Moore said.

On May 24, 2023, at around 2:45 p.m., Isaiah was coming out of a convenience store when shots were fired.

“He came out of the store and there were just bullets flying – everyone was running, screaming and yelling. I heard bullets flying,” Moore recalled.

Isaiah was hit multiple times. He was taken to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Now, according to authorities, 27-year-old Daniel Brown is wanted for his murder.

“If you see something, say something. So much is happening in this neighborhood. Isaiah doesn't deserve to go out like that,” his mother said.

Moore also told Action News that the store plans to eventually paint a plaque on the building in honor of her son.

“They want to put a mural on the wall. They love him there,” she said.

The City of Philadelphia is offering a reward of up to $20,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible.
