Felix Rosario, 55, was shot dead while opening Dalbert Grocery Store on West Runyon Street in Newark on the morning of October 18, 2016. At about 9 a.m., as he and his son were opening the family bodega, a man walked in, shot Rosario, and fled. Emergency services took Rosario to University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 9:16 a.m.

Relatives told media that two men had entered the store, left, then returned shortly before the shooting, and one of them fired. The Newark Police Department and the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force led the investigation. A 24-year-old suspect, Joshua Choice of Newark, was identified and arrested in the Bronx on October 20, 2016; he was charged with murder and weapons offenses and held on $750,000 bail. Officials did not immediately release a motive.
