Shortly after midnight on November 1, 2017, Shaniquah Richardson, 24, and her friend Rah-Zhane Lee, 22, were walking through a park near 2nd and Court streets in Elizabethport, Elizabeth, New Jersey, when both were struck by gunfire. Patrol units responding to reports of shots fired found the women at the scene and they were taken to Trinitas Regional Medical Center, where both were pronounced dead.

Shaniquah was a mother and is survived by a young daughter, Tiana Sosa. The Union County Homicide Task Force, Elizabeth Police Department, and Union County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Unit opened a joint investigation and released surveillance footage showing a dark-colored sedan speeding away near the time of the shooting. A reward of up to $10,000 was offered for information leading to an arrest and indictment.

No arrests had been announced and no suspects were publicly identified at the time of these reports. Does anyone have information about that night, the vehicle seen on surveillance, or the victims’ movements before the shooting?
