The evening of September 18, 2017, ended in violence on the 600 block of South 20th Street in Newark when a burst of gunfire around 7:25 p.m. left three people wounded. One of the victims, Alshadeem Q. Green, a 20-year-old Black male from Newark, was transported to University Hospital but died of his injuries and was pronounced dead at 8:02 p.m. Two other victims—a 20-year-old from Irvington and a 37-year-old from Newark—were also taken to the hospital and reported in stable condition.

The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office opened an investigation into the triple shooting. Initial reports indicated no arrests had been made, and authorities were asking the public for information to identify the person or persons responsible. The case remains an active homicide investigation.

Did anyone in the Newark area that night see or hear anything that could help identify who fired those shots?
