Good morning in the news this morning. A Temple University student was shot and killed

Sunday afternoon near North Philadelphia.

Officials say the student has been identified as 21-year-old Samuel Collington of Prospect Park, Delaware County.

The shooting happened at about 1.30 in the afternoon in the 2200 block of North Park Avenue, not far from where he lived off campus.

The block is just north of Susquehanna Avenue, a few feet from Temple's campus. Police said the senior had just parked his mother's SUV on the street after returning from Thanksgiving at his family's home. Authority said while he was unloading his things, a robber snuck up behind him and the struggle ensued. According to police, Collington was shot twice in the chest. He was taken to Temple University Hospital where he died of his injuries.

The shooting was caught on camera, but no arrests have been made yet.

Collington was a political science major set to graduate from college this spring and was

interning as a democracy fellow at City Commissioner Omar Sabir's office.
