Couple fatally shot dead while having sex in SUV
A man and woman found in a Philadelphia park fatally shot in an SUV were
having sex in the back seat and their killer sought the couple out,
police said.
Homicide Capt. James Clark said Monday that Shakoor Arline, 25, and Lisa
Smith, 32, were together in the SUV early Friday when someone opened
the rear door and fired nine times, shooting both multiple times in the
head.

Maintenance workers found their bodies around 2 p.m. Friday near Lemon
Hill Mansion, a historic building in the city's Fairmount Park. Clark
said the shootings happened between midnight and 5 a.m.
Arline and Smith met at work at a previous job and had been seeing each
other on and off for several years, Clark said. Both were also in
relationships with other people.
"So obviously that's where our investigation is going to start, because somebody knew that they were in the park at that time and obviously had an issue with that," he said.
Clark said nothing was taken and the case was not a robbery.
"You've got nine shots fired, all of them head shots to both of the victims, so it appears to be very much a crime of passion," Clark said.
Investigators have talked to a woman and are trying to talk to a man, but don't consider him a person of interest at this point.
