A man died, and a suspect is in custody following a shooting at SEPTA's City Hall station during the busy Friday morning commute.

The shooting happened at around 7:30 a.m. after a cashier said they overheard a gunshot on the northbound platform at the City Hall station, according to SEPTA's director of media relations, Andrew Busch.

The shooting stemmed from a fight between the gunman and the victim, Philadelphia police said. The 27-year-old victim was shot in the torso and taken to Jefferson University Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead at 10:43 a.m., officials said.

The 27-year-old alleged gunman, who is legally permitted to own a firearm, has since turned himself and the gun used in to the police.

The investigation is ongoing with the Homicide Unit.
