A 14-year-old boy was fatally shot in Newark Wednesday evening, making him the city's 10th homicide victim in the last 10 days.

The incident happened at the Riverview Terrace Housing Complex on Riverview Court, where the boy lived. Police identified the victim as Ali Rajohn Eric Henderson, who was gunned down in the courtyard area.

Friends and family members of the victim have been gathering and lighting candles at the scene.

No motive has been identified in the shooting, although sources have told Eyewitness News that a large amount of heroin and weapons were found inside the 14 year old victim's bedroom.

Most of the 10 murders over the last 10 days have taken place in the South Ward, and police say many are linked to drugs or gangs. This shooting took place near the east end of the city, at a troubled housing complex.

I was giving her the benefit of the doubt. Although, your assertion is very plausible too.

Good thing you did not have cigarettes or sugary drinks in your room.

“Corry Booker is wanting to do for America what he’s done for Newark.”

Small wonder that he thinks he can; he watched our Token President win two elections with no accomplishments at all except being black.

My brother is a probation officer. When my mother commented to him one time about the horrible state of affairs with all of the shootings and murders in their town he replied to her, “What’s the problem? It’s nothing but criminals killing criminals. They’re taking care of the problem for us”.
