Nasir S. Davis, 25, was shot and killed in Paterson, New Jersey, on the evening of May 3, 2022. Police responded about 9:16 p.m. to the intersection of Fair and Auburn Streets and found Davis inside a vehicle with apparent gunshot wounds. He was taken to St. Joseph’s University Medical Center and pronounced dead a short time later.

Investigators described the attack as coordinated. Within weeks two Paterson men were arrested: 24-year-old Anthony Powell was charged with first-degree murder under accomplice liability, and 22-year-old Joseph Shoulars was charged with unlawful possession of a weapon and hindering apprehension, accused of arriving after the shooting and removing the weapon. Authorities had not publicly identified who fired the fatal shots and the investigation remained active.

Davis, known as Nas, graduated from Passaic County Technical Institute and worked for the Paterson Department of Public Works. He had been a summer camp counselor at Montgomery Park and enjoyed the Boston Celtics, the New York Giants, video games, jokes, and cooking. Does anyone who knew Nas have information that could help the investigation?
