On the morning of September 4, 2017, the body of 20-year-old Dante Whyte was found in the backyard of a residence at 431 East 18th Street in Paterson, New Jersey. A resident of the home alerted police at about 8:00 a.m., and investigators from the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office and Paterson Police confirmed Whyte had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Prosecutor’s Office led the homicide investigation and publicly asked for tips via a phone line and email. The reasons Whyte was in that backyard and who fired the shots remain unexplained.

Does anyone have information about Dante Whyte, his movements that night, or the neighborhood that could help bring answers?
