On the afternoon of Friday, July 9, 2021, Jennifer Vorn, 24, of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, was shot and killed in Plainfield, New Jersey near Rock Avenue and West Front Street. Police found Vorn and a male companion with serious gunshot wounds; Vorn was pronounced dead at the scene. The male companion survived but was left permanently paralyzed and was treated at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick.

Investigators say two men from Plainfield followed the victims’ vehicle and, when it stopped at a traffic light, exited a black Buick SUV and fired at least 16 rounds into the car. Later that evening, one of the men was arrested while driving the Buick and the other was arrested nearby. A jury later convicted both defendants of first-degree murder, first-degree attempted murder, and weapons charges, and they were sentenced in January 2024.

If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information about the events leading up to it, please come forward.
