IRVINGTON, N.J. — A gunman shot a driver stopped at a traffic light and killed a pedestrian early Sunday, and the same man may be responsible for the shooting of a police sergeant, authorities said.
The three shootings took place within minutes in the same general area of Irvington, in northern New Jersey, around 3 a.m. Sunday, said Paul Loriquet, Essex County prosecutor’s office spokesman.
Police later accused Sha quan Johnson, 27, of Newark of shooting the officer and were investigating his possible involvement in the other two shootings.
He was being held Sunday night in jail on $500,000 bail.
