Shannon Williams has been charged with murder and weapons charges in Friday night's fatal shooting.
Shannon Williams, 35, has been charged with murder and weapons charges in Friday night’s fatal shooting on Beakes Street, Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo J. Onofri said in a statement.
Williams was taken to the Mercer County Correction Center on Saturday, where he awaits a detention hearing. On Friday at about 7 p.m., police arrived at the first block on Beakes Street for a reported shooting, where they found a victim “lying on the sidewalk suffering from gunshot wounds to the head, back and face,” the statement said. The victim was identified as 47-year-old Emanuel Ross, of Trenton, who was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.
Authorities found three shell casings near the victim and reviewed surveillance footage from the Mayor Donnelly Homes — a housing complex adjacent to Beakes Street — which showed a suspect “pulling out a gun and firing three shots in the direction of the victim,” according to the statement. Officials said they were able to identify Williams as the shooter.
