CENTER CITY (WPVI) -- Police say 20-year-old Michael White is officially charged with murder for the stabbing death of a prominent Philadelphia real estate developer.

37-year-old Sean Schellenger, the owner of Streamline Solutions was stabbed to death following an altercation late Thursday night just blocks from Rittenhouse Square.

A relative of Michael White said he was delivering food on his bike just before 11 p.m. Thursday night when he encountered 37-year-old real estate developer Sean Schellenger and two other men, who were having a dispute with the driver of a vehicle blocking their car from getting through Chancellor near 17th Street.

In a Friday morning press conference, Philadelphia Police Captain John Ryan said Schellenger was a passenger in a vehicle with two other men.

When they came upon another car blocking the street, Ryan said Schellenger and the two other men got out of their vehicle to see if they can help move traffic along. That's when a man on the bicycle approached the scene.

Police say an argument ensued between Schellenger and White.

"The man on the bike pulled a large knife from his backpack," Ryan said.

Whites' relatives say the men were heavily intoxicated and turned on him as he was trying to get through.

White's cousin, Larry White said, "From there, my cousin was spat on in his face and it was a difficult situation for my cousin to walk away from. He felt like he was being racially targeted by these individuals who wanted to start a fight."

Police say there was an altercation and Schellenger was stabbed in the back with a knife.

He later died at Jefferson University Hospital.
