Police were called to Susquehanna Avenue and Gratz Street around 11:30 p.m. Thursday.
Police believe the shooters were in a dark pickup truck that was spotted fleeing west on Susquehanna from 18th Street.
A man in his 30s was shot and died at the hospital, police said.
A 14-year-old female, who was on the porch of her home, was hit once in the back. She is hospitalized in critical but stable condition.
A 24-year-old man is stable.
In a statement, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said in part, "We refuse to stand idly by while yet another child has their life forever changed by a coward with a gun. "
Police believe the 14-year-old girl was hit by a stray bullet.
"After being shot, she ran into her home," said Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small. "Based on ballistic evidence, we know at least 17 shots were fired from a semiautomatic weapon. We found 17 spent shell casings on the street at Susquehanna."
No weapons were recovered and so far no arrests have been made.
The motive is also under investigation.
