Late on March 6, 2021, gunfire near East 49th Street and Avenue E in Bayonne, New Jersey, left 27-year-old Anthony Alvarado with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to Jersey City Medical Center and pronounced dead shortly before midnight. The Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide Unit and the Bayonne Police Department opened an investigation; this was the city’s second homicide that week.

Reports identified Alvarado as a high-ranking member of a Jersey City street gang, and investigators explored links to gang conflict. No suspects were publicly identified or arrested in connection with Alvarado’s killing. The following day federal authorities arrested Alvarado’s brother, 34-year-old Raheem Allen of Newark, after Allen admitted he was armed and travelling to Jersey City intending to kill people in retaliation; Allen later pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm and possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

Does anyone have information about who might have been responsible for Anthony Alvarado’s shooting?
