On the afternoon of April 26, 2023, Dehaven Rogers, a 34-year-old Black man from Trenton, was found in the front yard of a home at 75 Sussex Street in Ewing with multiple gunshot wounds. A 911 call came in about 2:17 p.m., and Ewing police arrived to find a suspect inside the house. Officers saw a man through a front window and established a perimeter; the man, later identified as 35-year-old Amir Williams, initially refused commands before emerging and surrendering without further incident.

Rogers was transported to Capital Health Regional Medical Center in Trenton but was pronounced dead. The Mercer County Homicide Task Force investigated, and Williams was charged with first-degree murder and second-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose; he was held at the Mercer County Corrections Center and the prosecutor filed a motion to keep him in custody pending trial.

Does anyone have information about Rogers, his movements that day, or what led to the shooting?
