IRVINGTON, New Jersey (WABC) -- Police are investigating after a teenager was fatally shot in New Jersey Wednesday afternoon.

The victim's backpack sat in the middle of street after the shooting, which happened just before 3 p.m. on Clinton Avenue in Irvington.

Police responded and rushed the victim to University Hospital in Newark where he was pronounced dead. He was identified as Marquise Jenkins, a student at Irvington High School.

The school is located nearby, and it is possible the victim was on his way home at the time.

There was a heavy police presence in the area.

I grew up there in the 50s and 60s. The town, bordering Newark, was 95% White and was a safe place to live.

That was then...

“He was identified as Marquise Jenkins”

Well the good thing to know is that his first name prevented any self-esteem problems.

Maybe the shooting was part of a robbery intended to steal the backpack?

It looks like an ostentatious name rather than a weird one.

Here's more:

He was 18 years old, and he was shot only steps away from the school.

Surveillance video from the scene shows the teen running from a hooded shooter. Cell phone video captured first responders trying to save Jenkins' life.

Yes, because innocent black victims of inner city crime is inexcusable and the Left makes excuses for it.

It is time the Right talk more about this.
