Qaadir Dukes-Hill, 18, and Nahjee Whittington, 17, are expected to face murder charges after being extradited back to Philadelphia, District Attorney Larry Krasner said during a news conference at his office.

Dukes-Hill is accused of shooting 24-year-old Alexis Quinn, a home health aide, while Whittington is accused of shooting Kristopher Minners, 22. Both of the victims had been out celebrating in the popular nightlife corridor when they were struck by wayward bullets.
