On the evening of Sunday, October 23, 2016, 29-year-old Lewis Griffith was shot on Peabody Place in Newark, New Jersey. Gunfire began around 8:30 p.m.; Griffith was pronounced dead at the scene eleven minutes later.

The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force led the investigation, working with the FBI Fugitive Task Force. A 24-year-old Newark resident, Raheem Brison, was identified, arrested and held at the Essex County Correctional Facility on charges including murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and unlawful possession of a weapon. Authorities said the investigation remained active.

Are there details about the shooting or witnesses who were in the Peabody Place area that anyone can share?
