Robert Harrison Jr., 24, of Irvington, was shot and killed in Newark on the night of August 19, 2016. Police responded at about 11:53 p.m. to reports of a shooting on Willoughby Street and found Harrison and 27-year-old Jessica Tosco of Flemington both suffering from gunshot wounds. Harrison was pronounced dead at the scene; Tosco was taken to a hospital and died two days later on August 21.

The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force investigated the double homicide and identified a suspect. Authorities arrested 33-year-old Earl Behlin of Newark on charges including two counts of murder, unlawful possession of a weapon, and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. Behlin was held at the Essex County Correctional Facility with bail set at $2 million cash only.

Does anyone have information about Harrison’s movements that night or knew him personally?
