Rashon S. Brown, 27, was dropped off at Newark Beth Israel Hospital in the early hours of August 7, 2017, with at least one gunshot wound and was pronounced dead about 34 minutes later. Brown had recently moved to Paterson but was a Newark resident when he was brought to the hospital around 1 a.m.

Investigators have not been able to determine exactly where the shooting occurred. The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force and Newark Police detectives opened a joint investigation soon after his death, but the case has since gone cold. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified.

Anyone with information that could help clarify where the shooting took place or who was involved is asked to come forward to assist the ongoing investigation.
