A police source said the male victim was shot four times--twice in the back, once in the head and once in the shoulder. He was transported to St. Barnabas Hospital at 7:07 p.m., where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Police have identified the victim as Omar Rodriguez, 31.

ReplyDeleteSomeone said he was confronting the guy because of drugs. That life leads to these unfortunate circumstances; someone put him out of his misery. The word on the street is: Omar sought out his killer and paid with his life.
ReplyDeleteTo the commenter above no one deserves to pay for anything with their life. He was stil young and had a life ahead of him to be lived. Rest in peace Omar. You were a good kid. You will be missed.
ReplyDeleteRIP Omar, sad that your young life was cut so short.
