Covvie Darrel Scott Jr. was 24 and from Ewing Township when he was fatally shot in Trenton on the night of Wednesday, July 1, 2020. Shot Spotter alerted police to gunfire around 10:15 p.m. in the 100 block of North Hermitage Avenue; responding officers initially found no evidence of a shooting. Scott was later taken to a local hospital by a private vehicle with at least one gunshot wound and was pronounced dead shortly before midnight.

Investigators also examined a motor vehicle crash at West State and Calhoun streets that occurred around the same time, which they believed might be related. The Mercer County Homicide Task Force and the Trenton Police Department launched a joint investigation and asked the public for help. No public announcements about arrests or identified suspects have been made and the case remains open.
