Currently, the suspects have not received formal charges.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities released security camera footage last week showing the group of teens violently beating Lambert with traffic cones. They described the suspects as \u201cfour black males and three black females who appear to be in their early to mid-teens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe teens struck the victim several times with objects, knocking the victim to the ground causing injuries to his head,\u201d Philadelphia PD <a href=\"https:\/\/blotter.sites.phillypolice.com\/2022\/07\/wanted-suspects-for-homicide-in-the-22nd-district-video-3\/\">said<\/a>. \u201cThe victim was transported to the hospital where he died of his injuries the following day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The video shows the suspects chasing Lambert across the street before one clocks him in the back of the head with a traffic cone that knocked him down. Another teen then picks up the cone and throws it at the elderly man while he\u2019s on the ground. Lambert then gets up and attempts to get away, but the group of juveniles once again pursues him before they are out of the camera\u2019s frame.<\/p>\n<p>NBC10 reported video surveillance shows the suspects leaving the crime scene with one hopping on a scooter and talking to another young person walking alongside him right after the attack. They can later be seen gathering again, with one teen mimicking a person stumbling.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities transported Lambert to a nearby hospital, where he died the following day.<\/p>\n<p>Lambert\u2019s family, who saw him hours before the attack, told NBC Philadelphia they\u2019re heartbroken and in disbelief that the attack happened by a group of kids.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s so evil,\u201d Elsie Stephens, the victim\u2019s older sister told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcphiladelphia.com\/news\/local\/deadly-traffic-cone-beating-north-philadelphia\/3293913\/\">NBC10<\/a>. \u201cHow could you do that to a person. You have a mother and a father \u2014 how could you just beat a man until you take off half of his skull?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lambert\u2019s niece said she couldn\u2019t comprehend teenagers would beat an older person in the street for no apparent reason.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sick to my stomach over this,\u201d Tania Stephens, Lambert\u2019s niece, told the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/07\/09\/family-of-philadelphia-beating-victim-james-lambert-speak\/\">New York Post<\/a>. \u201cWe all can\u2019t stop crying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho does this? Anyone normal doesn\u2019t beat up and kill a senior citizen walking down the street,\u201d she added. \u201cSimmie didn\u2019t deserve this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Philadelphia law enforcement offered a $20,000 reward to identify the seven suspects.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese kids should come forward,\u201d Stephens told the New York Post. \u201cTheir parents should come forward. Something is very wrong when kids are out at 2 a.m. beating and killing an old man. We\u2019ve lost God. We\u2019ve lost family. What\u2019s happened to us?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NBC10 reported Philadelphia police data shows the city has seen 280 homicides in 2022 \u2014 only 2% lower than the same time last year.<\/p>\n<p>Homicide data shows 2021 in Philadelphia as the deadliest year in history.<\/p>\n<p>Daily Wire reporter Zach Jewell <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/city-of-brotherly-love-newly-released-video-shows-group-of-philly-teens-beating-elderly-man-with-traffic-cone\">contributed<\/a> to this report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two of the seven juveniles who allegedly beat an elderly man to death with a traffic cone last month in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, turned themselves in on Monday to authorities.
