Police said Friday that they have issued an arrest warrant for a 19-year-old acquaintance in the death of a Philadelphia journalist who went from sleeping on the street to working for the mayor to writing urgent columns on the city’s most pressing social issues. Josh Kruger, 39, was shot and killed at his Philadelphia home early Monday. Police believe the acquaintance killed Kruger, but could not give a motive, they said.
