Davon Jones, a 17-year-old Black male, was killed in a shooting on April 14, 2016, on the 100 block of Taylor Street in Orange, New Jersey. The shooting occurred shortly after 9:30 p.m.; officers responding to reports of gunfire found Jones with a gunshot wound and he was taken to University Hospital in Newark, where he was pronounced dead at 10:10 p.m. that evening. Three other males were wounded in the same incident; their injuries were reported as non-life-threatening and they were treated at area hospitals.

Investigators from the Essex County Prosecutor’s Major Crimes Task Force treated the incident as a drive-by shooting. Reports said a light-colored SUV with multiple occupants drove up to where Jones and two other males were standing and gunfire came from the vehicle. The Essex County Sheriff’s Crime Stoppers Program offered up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. No arrests have been publicly announced and the case remained open as the family and community sought answers.

Did anyone in the area that night see the SUV or the people in it, or have information that could help this investigation?
