Corey White, a Philadelphia man whose ex-girlfriend allegedly used Facebook to put out a $1,000 hit on him, has been shot and killed.
Details: Corey White killed
White was shot once in the chest Monday evening after reportedly having an argument with at least one suspect. That person was later seen fleeing in a brown vehicle, Philadelphia police spokewoman Tanya Little said.
Earlier this year White’s ex-girlfriend, 20-year-old London Eley, who is also the mother of his child, posted on Facebook, “I will pay somebody a stack to kill my baby father.” Police said a “stack” refers to $1,000.
Timothy Bynum allegedly responded, “Say no more … what he look like … where he be at … need that stack 1st,” according to police.
