A Philadelphia journalist by the name of John Kruger was found dead at the age of 39 in his home, after someone had entered his home in Philly and shot him seven times on Monday.

Kruger ran outside seeking help from his neighbors but collapsed. Kruger later died in the hospital of the tragic incident.

No arrests have been made, and there was no sign of forced entry into the home, according to Deputy Police Commissioner Frank Vanore, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Kruger, a prominent supporter of the LGBTQ community, was a journalist and former Philadelphia Office of Homeless Services spokesperson who wrote for a variety of outlets including The Philadelphia Inquirer, the Philadelphia Citizen and LGBTQ Nation, Fox News reports.

According to Zerohedge Kruger frequently “mocked” conservatives on X, claiming that they worried to much about gun violence in Democratic govern cities. Kruger wrote earlier on X that “four times as many Philadelphians have died of COVID than gun shots this year” and continued writing that “I understand math is hard but do better.”
