What began as a quiet night in Newark, New Jersey, ended in tragedy. Four young people, three of
whom were students at Delaware State University, were victims of a senseless shooting. After
stopping by the home of siblings Natasha and Terrance Aerial, the group headed out again, supposedly
to get something to eat.
Natasha and Terrance, along with close friends Deshawn Harvey and Ofemi Hightower, left the house
around 9:45 p.m. The four friends ended up outside of an elementary school, the Mount Vernon School,
where they were listening to music and hanging out. But nobody knows for sure what happened next.
The only eye-witness to this crime was Natasha Aeriel, and police hope that once her condition
improves, she will be able to provide them with information.
Police arrived at the scene after receiving phone calls reporting gunshots and screams in the area.
By the time they arrived, three of the four young students were already dead, shot execution style
in the back of the head.
Terrance Aeriel, Deshawn Harvey, and Ofemi Hightower had been lined up against a wall near a set of
bleachers, and shot at close-range. 19-year-old Natasha Aeriel was found almost 30 feet away from
the other victims, with a gunshot wound near her ear. She was alive when the police arrived, and was
immediately transported to University Hospital.
Some residents of the neighborhood told detectives they saw a group of men running away from the
school shortly after the gunshots, but nobody was able to see faces or determine how many people
there were.
Police are now examining text messages sent between the four victims in the minutes before they were
shot. Evidence is now indicating that this was a robbery gone very wrong, and in the time before the
crime escalated, the victims were able to communicate with each other via text messages. Detectives
are hopeful that the messages will provide new information.
Pls pray that Natasha the only survior will get well soon
