A late-morning shooting on Springfield Avenue in Newark on January 21, 2014 left two people dead and multiple others wounded. Shante Spivey, 28, of East Orange, was a passenger in a parked car outside a restaurant when an unknown person approached and opened fire. The car’s driver, 36-year-old Akbar Muhammad of Newark, was killed at the scene; Spivey was taken to a nearby hospital and died shortly after. Three other occupants — a 35-year-old woman and two men, 18 and 34 — were wounded and survived.

Investigators early on believed at least one occupant had been specifically targeted, and subsequent inquiries pointed toward Akbar Muhammad as the likely intended victim, though no clear motive was established. The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office and the Newark Police Department opened a joint investigation, but no suspects or arrests had been announced and the case remained unsolved as of the last reports.

Did anyone see the parked car that morning or notice suspicious activity on Springfield Avenue around that time?
