Police Seek Public’s Help Locating Two Individuals Wanted for Questioning in a Shooting
Newark Public Safety Director Fritz G. Fragé requests the public’s help with locating Michael Wojcik, 32, and Ayanna Gonzalez, who are wanted for questioning about a shooting that occurred on February 15, 2023.
The incident, captured on surveillance video, occurred at approximately 4 p.m. in the 600 block of Mt. Prospect Avenue. At that location, a Black male suspect wearing a red and orange coat with a hood exited a Red 2008 CTS Cadillac and fired several shots at a group of young men.
The suspect, also wanted by police, fled southbound on Mt. Prospect Avenue in the vehicle that is owned by Wojcik. The vehicle has a Georgia temporary license plate (S1424879) and Gonzalez drives it frequently.
Director Fragé urges anyone with information on the whereabouts of Wojcik and Gonzalez to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477).
