Police Seek Public’s Help Identifying Assault Suspect

Newark Public Safety Director Fritz Fragé requests the public’s help in identifying the suspect pictured below, who assaulted a victim following an argument on August 8, 2024.
 
At approximately 2:50 a.m., the victim boarded the No. 25  NJ Transit bus and the suspect said something to the victim that he did not like. A verbal altercation ensued until the bus reached Broad and Market Streets. The victim exited the bus, and the suspect punched him in the face several times.
 
Director Fragé urges anyone with information about the suspect’s identity to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477).
