The man who allegedly murdered a Passyunk Square woman was apprehended last week for her, as well as a Logan man’s, death.
Siegfried Moore, 51, of the 4700 block of North 15th Street, was arrested Aug. 25 in connection to the death of Laundromat owner Huan Mo, of the 800 block of Dickinson Street, according to the Police Public Affairs Unit. Mo’s Logan-based business is on the same block as Moore’s home.
Moore is believed to have stabbed the 53-year-old multiple times in her chest and back inside her business’ office Aug. 11. Her family found her there later that night when she did not return home from work.
Moore also was charged with the Aug. 4 murder of 19-year-old Devaughn Smith, who resides two blocks south of where he was killed on the 4800 block of North Camac Street and about three blocks from Moore’s residence.
Moore was charged with two counts of murder and related offenses.
Moore had served time and was on probation for a 2004 aggravated assault, according to court documents. He also was found guilty of possession the following year.

What was behind the gunfire that left a man paralyzed from the neck down on the 1400 block of South 20th Street is still unknown.
A 14-year-old was charged with robbing a driver at gunpoint as he parked his car on a Point Breeze street early Monday. The 32-year-old stopped on the 1400 block of South 22th Street and, as he removed the keys from the ignition at 12:05 a.m., the teen allegedly walked up to the driver’s-side window and demanded money, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The offender is believed to have pulled a chrome-colored weapon from underneath this shirt and said, “Give it to me now or I’ll bang you.” The man handed over his wallet with $9 and identification, as well as his keys. The teen allegedly fled south toward Gerritt Street on a mountain bike, Tolliver said. Police arrived on the scene minutes later and saw a 14-year-old boy riding a bike on Gerritt’s sidewalk, Tolliver said. Police followed him westbound for three blocks and arrested him on the 2400 block of Reed Street. Police found $9 on the resident from the 2600 block of Earp Street, Tolliver said. He was charged with robbery, theft, simple assault, firearm violations and related offenses. Contact Staff Writer Amanda Snyder at asnyder@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117....
The stun gun used in the robbery of a 24-year-old near the Italian Market Monday evening was recovered, but the duo responsible are still at-large.
On a Grays Ferry street, police spotted a Mercedes-Benz going the wrong way down a one-way street and then discovered the driver had allegedly just run over her ex-girlfriend.
A group of four followed the three teens they believed mugged them in Marconi Plaza, leading police to a Girard Estate home.
An armed man ordered everyone to the ground inside a Point Breeze doughnut shop last week and, as he left with a customer’s cash, yelled out, “It’s not about you. It’s about the Koreans.”
The duo allegedly responsible for two robberies of a Grays Ferry home were nabbed by police — and the second burglary is believed to have caught a neighbor on video surveillance doing the deed.
The 3rd District will hold a community meeting 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. Sept. 8 at its 11th and Wharton streets headquarters.
