A 31-year-old man was killed Monday night in a shooting in Newark, and another person was injured, the Essex County Prosecutor's Office said.
Pedro Dillahunt, of Newark, was pronounced dead at 8:06 p.m. after being shot about 20 minutes earlier in the 200 block of Hunterdon Street, Acting County Prosecutor Robert D. Laurino and city Public Safety Director Anthony F. Ambrose said in a joint statement.
The prosecutor's office said a second man who was shot is in stable condition.
Authorities declined to name the surviving victim, and said the investigation is ongoing.
Investigators have asked anyone with information about the shooting to call the prosecutor's office's homicide and major crimes tip line at 1-877-TIPS-4EC or 1-877-847-7432.
