Orlando Sanchez, a 28-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed in Trenton, New Jersey, on September 8, 2012. Two weeks earlier, on August 25, Sanchez survived an attempted murder when a man named Juan Colon allegedly fired a shot at him inside his Elm Street home as Sanchez fled up a staircase; that incident reportedly began over a dispute involving Colon’s girlfriend who was at Sanchez’s residence.

Investigators identified Colon as a person of interest after the September 8 homicide; Colon left for Florida in the days following the killing and was later apprehended there by U.S. Marshals. Authorities never charged Colon with Sanchez’s murder. The only prosecution that followed concerned the August 25 attempted shooting, which resulted in a mixed jury verdict. The murder of Orlando Sanchez remains officially unsolved.

If anyone knew Orlando, witnessed either confrontation, or has information about the shooting on September 8, please share what is known.
