Man Convicted in 2022 Fatal Shooting of 21-Year-Old at Northeast Philly Bar
A Philadelphia judge has found Anthony Nelson guilty of third-degree murder in the 2022 shooting death of 21-year-old Jailene Holton inside a Northeast Philadelphia bar.
The shooting happened on June 28, 2022, at Philly Bar & Restaurant, 2417 Welsh Road, just off Roosevelt Boulevard.
Prosecutors said Nelson was involved in an argument over a pool table and was asked to leave the bar. Authorities said he then went to his car, retrieved a gun, and fired multiple shots into the building, striking Holton in the head.
Holton was not involved in the dispute, according to investigators.
Nelson was arrested several days later at an Atlantic City casino. In addition to third-degree murder, he was also convicted on firearms and reckless endangerment charges.
He is scheduled to be sentenced in April.
