On the afternoon of October 25, 2014, 33-year-old Keith Burton was walking on the 300 block of Myrtle Avenue in Irvington, New Jersey when someone shot him, inflicting a serious wound to his leg. Emergency personnel transported Burton to University Hospital in Newark, where he later died from his injuries; the incident was investigated as a homicide by the Irvington Police Department and the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office.

Investigators arrested a 37-year-old man from Newark and charged him with first-degree murder, felony murder, conspiracy, and multiple weapons offenses tied to the shooting. Authorities did not publicly disclose a motive or whether Burton and the accused had any prior relationship.

Does anyone in the area remember seeing Burton that day or have information about who else might have been on Myrtle Avenue around noon on October 25, 2014?
