Eric Lasure, 30, was fatally shot in Newark’s South Ward on the evening of March 1, 2018. The shooting occurred on the 100 block of Leslie Street at about 8:00 p.m.; one account says he was retrieving items from a vehicle when gunfire began. Emergency crews took Lasure to University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead shortly before 10:15 p.m.

The Newark Police Department and the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide and Major Crimes Task Force opened an immediate investigation. Detectives canvassed the neighborhood for witnesses and evidence. At the time of initial reports no suspects had been publicly identified and no arrests had been announced.

Does anyone who was in the South Ward that night or who knew Eric have information that could help investigators?
