Harold A. Rosario Cordones was 19 when he died in a Trenton shooting shortly before 1 a.m. on March 25, 2023. Shots were fired on the 100 block of Sanhican Drive; two young men were struck. Both were taken to a hospital, and Harold was pronounced dead soon after arrival. The other victim, 20, survived and was listed in stable condition.

The Mercer County Homicide Task Force and Trenton Police investigated. By mid-April detectives identified two suspects. On April 14, 2023, U.S. Marshals located and arrested 23-year-old Ja-Quez Howard in Trenton; on April 18 the Marshals arrested 24-year-old Darnell D. Mensah. Both were charged with murder for Harold’s death, attempted murder for the wounded victim, aggravated assault and weapons offenses.

Harold’s family and the neighborhood were left to grieve after a night that ended in gunfire and loss. Does anyone have information about what happened on Sanhican Drive that morning?
