Markice Shariff Hatten, a 33-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in Jersey City on November 23, 2015. The shooting occurred in the Greenville neighborhood near Old Bergen Road and Neptune Avenue in daylight; officers found Hatten with multiple gunshot wounds and he was pronounced dead after being taken to Jersey City Medical Center.

City officials described this as a targeted attack. In the months before his death Hatten had been stabbed and was the intended target of a separate shooting, prompting the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Homicide Unit and Jersey City Police to treat him as the focus of directed violence. Despite those leads and an active investigation, no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified.

Does anyone have information about Hatten, his movements in Greenville, or the prior incidents that might help bring answers to his family?
