Early on Saturday, August 25, 2018, a burst of gunfire on the 200 block of Brunswick Avenue near Southard Street in Trenton, New Jersey, left 21-year-old Jakim Allen with multiple gunshot wounds to his chest. Allen was taken to Capital Health Regional Medical Center but died later that afternoon. The shooting occurred during a weekend of back-to-school events that was marred by multiple shootings and other victims wounded.

The Mercer County Homicide Task Force opened an investigation and canvassed the neighborhood for information. In the days and weeks after the killing, authorities did not release details about a motive or any persons of interest, and no arrests were reported in the initial accounts. The community and Allen’s family were left seeking answers.
