Saadiq Coleman was 19 when he was shot and killed in Camden, New Jersey, on the evening of September 8, 2015. Just before 8:30 p.m., multiple gunshots rang out near Broadway and Benson Street. Two Camden County Police officers in a nearby patrol car heard the shots, saw Coleman running toward them, and watched him collapse after being struck multiple times. He was taken to Cooper University Hospital and pronounced dead at 11:07 p.m.

Investigators identified persons of interest from surveillance footage and pursued leads that pointed to 23-year-old Jacob Llera of Camden. Llera was arrested by U.S. Marshals about eight days after the shooting in Philadelphia. Prosecutors relied on witness testimony, surveillance video, and photographs to place him at the scene as the shooter. A jury found Jacob Llera guilty in October 2018 on first-degree murder and two weapons offenses; he was sentenced in January 2019 to 47 years in New Jersey State Prison, with a minimum of 37 and a half years before parole eligibility.

If anyone saw activity around Broadway and Benson Street on September 8, 2015, or has information about Coleman’s last movements, please come forward.
