Keyshawn Jones, a 23-year-old Black man, was shot multiple times inside his apartment in the Stephen Crane Village public housing complex on Franklin Avenue in Newark during the early hours of Sunday, December 15, 2019. Police found Jones at the scene and he was pronounced dead shortly after.

Investigators quickly identified Newark resident Michael Mayse as a suspect. On the evening of December 16, homicide detectives, SWAT and Newark Emergency Services Units located Mayse at a home on North 12th Street; after a two-hour standoff he was arrested. Officers recovered two handguns and quantities of cocaine and heroin at that residence. Mayse was charged by the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office with murder and weapons offenses in Jones’s death, and authorities linked the killing to a violent drug trafficking organization operating out of Stephen Crane Village. Federal prosecutors later alleged Mayse killed Jones, a co-conspirator, over a drug debt.

Does anyone have information about Keyshawn’s movements or associates in Stephen Crane Village around December 2019?
