A man shot several times died late last night in Chester, which has been under a state of emergency because of a rash of homicides earlier this month.
The man, whose name was not released, was found just before 11 p.m. in a rented white Dodge Caravan at Honan and Boyle Streets, according to police.
He was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:04 p.m.
Investigators took statements from several witnesses, but no arrests were reported by police overnight.
Mayor Wendell Butler declared a state of emergency after four people, including a 2-year-old boy, were killed in less than a week. Curfews from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. were imposed in five high-crime areas, and police have been working extended shifts.
