Another tragedy has hit our community by way of gun violence. In last night’s shooting, an innocent four-year-old was hurt and by the grace of God is still with us because our Newark police officers rushed the child to the hospital and helped save her life.

‍

I am asking the Newark Police Division to work around the clock to find the shooters and we will not rest until we have these shooters in custody.

‍

In a city where we are fighting for police reform, we also need everyone to come together to end the violence that has plagued our community for so many years. We need a stronger push and we all have to do our part.  

‍

I urge anyone who has information about any of the shooters to contact NPD immediately at 973-733-6000. ‍
