Police are now asking for the public's help in finding a man who has gone missing. 72-year-old George Ran Hudson was last seen on Saturday at his home on the 2700 block of North 20th Street. Hudson's family says that he suffers from dementia and walks bent over. He is described as a black man, 5' 4" with brown eyes and gray hair. Police say that the man may be driving a 2014 Blue Honda Civic with Pennsylvania tags. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Northwest Detective Division. (215-686-3353).

Philadelphia Police are now investigating a double shooting that left one person dead and another injured. The shooting took place on the 2400 block of Arlington Street in North Philadelphia on Sunday. Responding officers found the two men on the scene both with multiple gunshot wounds. The first man was found sitting in a car, he was pronounced dead on the scene. The other victim, a 27-year-old man was found shot in the head and chest. He is currently at Temple Hospital in critical condition. There is no word on a motive and police are still searching for the suspect.

The Citizens Crime Commission in Philadelphia is now offering a $45,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for killing a Philadelphia man back in 2008. 24-year-old Matthew Novak was killed back on September 28th, 2008 when he and his friends were heading home from the Philly Puerto Rican Day Parade. On the way home, their car broke down at 6th and Green Streets in Northern Liberties. Video shows that a blue Chevy Impala with three men inside stops to help the men. Matthew got in the car with the men and drove with them to 13th and Fairmount Street. As Matthew got out of the car, they shot him in the leg. He later died at the hospital. The family of Matthew hope that they will finally be able to find their son's killer. Anyone with information is asked to call 215-546-TIPS.
