Ernest Matthews, 25, was fatally shot in front of his home on the 200 block of Irvine Turner Boulevard in Newark on the night of September 20, 2015. Matthews, who used a wheelchair, was found with gunshot wounds in the early morning hours; despite emergency response, he died at the scene. The shooting was one of several homicides in Newark that weekend, intensifying community alarm.

The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office offered a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and police described the case as an active investigation.

Does anyone who lived in that neighborhood or was in the area that night have information that could help solve Ernest Matthews’s murder?
