Christopher Terry was 17 when he was shot and killed on Christmas Eve 2016 in Orange, New Jersey. The shooting occurred about 1:20 p.m. near 171 Main Street; emergency personnel pronounced him dead roughly ten minutes later on the public street where the attack took place.

The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office and the Orange Police Department opened a joint homicide investigation. In early 2017 no arrests had been made and the motive remained under investigation. In July 2017 the Essex County Sheriff’s Office offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. No further public announcements about arrests or suspect identifications were released as of the latest reports.

If anyone was in the area that afternoon or has information that might help resolve Christopher’s killing, please share what you know with investigators.
