On June 24, 2014, at about 4:30 p.m. a pursuit in Jersey City ended when 20-year-old Lavon King was shot and later pronounced dead at 8:54 p.m. Two Jersey City Emergency Services Unit officers followed King through backyards on Ege Avenue; one officer on foot entered an unlocked shed where, according to the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office, a struggle took place as the unarmed King tried to disarm the officer and the officer fired one shot that struck King in the torso. An autopsy listed the cause of death as a gunshot wound to the torso and the manner of death as homicide.

More than six months later the shooting officer was publicly identified as Kenneth Bowes. Family members disputed the account given at the funeral, saying they did not believe King entered the shed. The Homicide Unit and Internal Affairs Unit were still investigating the shooting months after the incident with no final determination announced.

Does anyone have information or witnessed the pursuit on Ege Avenue that afternoon?
