EAST ORANGE, N.J. — A man who was denied access to a private party at an apartment near Seton Hall University left and returned with a handgun, fatally shooting a university student and wounding four people.
Jessica Moore, 19, died from her injuries at 3:20 p.m. Saturday, said Katherine Carter, a spokeswoman for the Essex County prosecutor’s office.
The other four victims were hospitalized with injuries that were not life-threatening, and one has been released, said East Orange police Sgt. Andrew Di Elmo.
Di Elmo said the victims did not know the shooter. Police are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the suspect’s capture.
