Micah Tennant was 10 years old when he was struck by a stray bullet at a high school football playoff game in Pleasantville, New Jersey. The shooting occurred on November 15, 2019, during the third quarter while Micah attended with his mother and sister. He was taken to Cooper University Hospital in Camden and died of his injuries on November 20, 2019.

Authorities say the shooting was not related to the schools or the game but stemmed from a targeted attack described as petty vengeance. The intended target, Ibn Abdullah, and a 15-year-old boy were also wounded. Police tackled an alleged gunman, Alvin Wyatt of Atlantic City, in the stadium end zone as he tried to flee; he was charged with murder, two counts of attempted murder, and weapons offenses. Several other men were arrested after leaving the scene and initially faced weapons-related charges.

Micah was remembered for his love of DJ-ing and his bright smile. If anyone who was at the game or who knew Micah has information that could help, please come forward.
