Penn-Presbyterian assassin Jaadir Goodwyn turns himself in

Police say the man struck four people, including three nurses, at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center during a hit-and-run on Saturday and turned himself in to police.

Jaadir Goodwyn, accompanied by his attorney, surrendered at Philadelphia police headquarters around noon Wednesday and is facing multiple charges, including first-degree aggravated assault and related crimes, Deputy Police Commissioner Frank Vanore said.

Goodwyn’s surrender comes a day after police held a news conference identifying him as the suspect in the hit-and-run that left three nurses injured, including one who remains in critical condition, fighting for his life.

At Tuesday’s news conference, Vanore said that before the collision, three men got out of the Jeep, entered the hospital’s emergency room and begged for help. Shortly afterwards, the three men who had begged for help jumped back into the car and left the hospital, running straight into the three nurses and their co-worker they had dropped off, he said. The incident happened around 4:20 am

The shooting victim was initially injured in the 1300 block of Belmont Avenue, police said. He has not yet been identified and police say he is in stable condition.

The nurses who were injured include a 36-year-old man who remained in critical condition and two other men – aged 51 and 37 – who were reported to be in stable condition.

Police are still working to identify the two other people who were in the Jeep and to identify what led to the shooting on Belmont Avenue, Vanore said.
