The city of Philadelphia is offering a $20,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for killing 23-year-old Everett Beauregard on Thursday.
Beauregard was fatally shot in the 400 block of North 35th Street around 12:30 a.m. Thursday after attempting to return home from a friend's event in south Philadelphia, FOX 29 reported.
He got off a train in the area of 34th and Market streets before walking the rest of the way to his apartment.

"I am heartsick to learn the senseless epidemic of gun violence has struck a member of my team, our former campaign intern Everett Beauregard," Boyle wrote. "Everett worked for my campaign during the 2018 election season. He made great contributions to our electoral victory that year. He was a nice, well liked, and purposeful young man with a bright future ahead of him. We will truly miss him and we grieve along with his family and friends during this difficult time."
