Police Seek Help Identifying Armed Robbery Suspects

Newark Public Safety Director Fritz G. Fragé seeks the public’s assistance in identifying the below-pictured suspects in connection with an armed robbery that occurred on Monday, July 8, 2024.
 
At approximately 12:50 a.m., three men walking in the 200 block of Sherman Avenue were approached and surrounded by a group of six males who robbed them at gunpoint. The suspects then fled on foot, heading west on East Runyon Street.
 
Detectives investigating this incident describe the suspect who brandished a handgun as wearing a black T-shirt, black pants, and a black ski mask.
 
Director Fragé urges anyone with information regarding the identity of either of these suspects to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477).
