After seeing NJ.com’s homicide map for Hudson County in 2008, I created a similar Google map with the North Jersey homicides for 2009: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&gl=us&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=100430255326859206461.00046c0c8bf50984defdd They’re color-coded for what city they occurred in, and includes the names and ages of deceased, where they’re known. The total is 17 so far, one being a police shooting, a justifiable homicide in self-defense. After these last few days of violence, I’m surprised there haven’t been more murders.
There were a LOT of shootings these last few days. On June 9, a single shot was fired near Ocean Avenue and Wegman Parkway in Jersey City. A man who was walking by was hit in the stomach, but didn’t realize that he had been shot until he got to his apartment and noticed the blood. The victim was uncooperative with the police, and drove himself to the hospital.
Two days later, there was a report of shots fired on Temple Street in Paterson. Officers on the scene pulled over a suspicious vehicle, and approached it with guns drawn. The occupants burst out of the Hummer and began to run, dropping weapons in the process. The driver was in possession of a Tec-9 automatic machine pistol, with forty bullets and one in the chamber. Another of the car’s occupants had a .357 magnum revolver, both weapons illegal. A digital scale found in the car suggests that they were involved in the drug trade.
Saddest of all, today a shooting in Newark left a 12-year-old boy in critical condition. By the Stratford Aspen Apartment Complex, where a 19-year-old boy was murdered two weeks ago, a man in a silver SUV pulled up and began to argue with a 23-year-old man standing in a group of people. The driver pulled out a handgun and fired eight shots, one striking his target in the back, but stray bullets hitting a 12-year-old who was standing nearby in the back, arm, and stomach. While the shooter’s target was in stable condition, the young man who took the most bullets is in critical care.
Crime tends to peak on the weekends, but there’s one piece of good news. A Paterson man responsible for at least fifteen car burglaries in Rutherford has been arrested, and cooperative with police. While not on the same level as shootings and murder, at least it’s a sign of progress in the neverending fight against crime.

The crime map for May coming to an end.
The month is nearly over, and the full crime map showing the areas and levels of crimes in the region can be posted. In the meantime, here’s an overview of the previous week in crime, and some statistics of the crime data so far:
On May 18, four hooded suspects robbed a jewelry store in Hackensack. Two were arrested, the others returned to Brooklyn with the stolen property. Also on that Monday, a 51-year-old inmate at a Newark rehab center was found strangled by two other inmates in a dispute over $20.
On May 19, a Tuesday, a man was arrested for attempted sexual assault on a minor in Ridgefield Park (the hometown of the author) on an internet sting, where he was told to come to a certain location to have sex with a ten-year-old girl. Police arrested him as soon as he got out of his car. Also, a post office in East Orange was robbed at gunpoint.
Wednesday, May 20, had police investigating two shotgun blasts in Irvington, and a gang of gun-toting robbers breaking into a Montclair house, tying up the three occupants, and stealing their wallets as well as possessions in the house.
On Thursday, May 21, a police sting arrested a Parsippany man with 40 loaded pistols, assault rifles, and other weaponry in his house. A few miles east in Paterson that morning, a policeman shot and missed an axe-wielding man who had tried to attack him.
On May 22, two men with Uzi assault rifles robbed a construction boss of $11,000 in cash in downtown Jersey City. Also, two teenagers were carjacked in Paterson, robbed, and left abandoned in northwest. The carjackers were found outside a liquor store an hour later, and were arrested for the carjacking, as well as the twelve baggies of crack cocaine, as well as cannabis and heroin, in their car.
On Saturday, May 23, a young woman claimed to have been raped by two men at the house of Jets’ safety Kerry Rhodes in Morristown. Also, in the early morning of downtown Jersey City, a drive-by shooting critically injured two men. One escaped with a bullet in the leg, but the other was struck six times, in the upper back, stomach, arm, leg, and hand, leaving him in intensive care in the hospital.
On Sunday, May 24, an open air drug market was busted in Jersey City, leading to six men being arrested on drug and illegal weapons charges. Also, a Laundromat owner was stabbed by a homeless man over a small sum of money in Paterson.
In the early morning hours of May 25, a 23-year-old man was fatally shot in the head on a street corner in Jersey City. Later in that day, a Crip in East Orange drew a .38 caliber pistol on his ex-girlfriend and threatened to shoot her in the head; she called the police and he was arrested. He was already facing charges for operating an organized gang of drug distribution all over Essex and Morris Counties.
Since midnight on May 1, there have been:
86 burglaries
33 non-fatal assaults
27 robberies
14 non-fatal shootings
12 stolen vehicles
6 disorderly conducts
6 distribution charges
4 fatal assaults
4 fatal shootings
3 arsons
3 larceny charges
3 sexual assaults
3 weapons offenses
2 lewd acts
1 blackmail
1 breaking and entering
1 carjacking
1 combined distribution and weapons charge
1 manslaughter
1 prostitution charge
In the northernmost six counties of New Jersey. Jersey City clearly appears to be the most dangerous place, with three murders standing out on the list, as well as eleven assaults, two non-fatal shootings, and four armed robberies. Crime has even extended into Bergen and Morris Counties, where robberies, drug distribution, burglaries, and sexual assaults have all shown up on the radar. Sussex County is the only county that’s comparatively quiet. Passaic, Essex, and Hudson are all teeming with crime.
The murders so far have been:
May 5 – Shooting in Newark, man killed with gunshots to chest and head in Vailsburg
May 6 – Stabbing in Paterson, man stabbed multiple times in Wrigley Park
May 6 – Stabbing in Jersey City, man stabbed in his neck and shoulder in Journal Square
May 11 – Shooting in Newark, man killed with gunshot to head in Weequahic
May 17 – Shooting in Newark, man killed with gunshot to chest in Weequahic
May 17 – Strangling in Jersey City, man killed by choking in The Heights
May 18 – Strangling in Newark, man killed by choking in Newark Bay
May 25 – Shooting in Jersey City, man killed with gunshot to the head in Bergen-Lafayette
For some final county data on violent crime before the crime map goes up:
Bergen County has five nonfatal assaults, three robberies.
Essex County has three fatal shootings, five non-fatal shootings, one fatal assault, one non-fatal assault, eleven robberies.
Hudson County has one fatal shooting, two non-fatal shootings, two fatal assaults, sixteen non-fatal assaults, and seven robberies.
Morris County has one non-fatal shooting, five non-fatal assaults, and two robberies.
Passaic County has six non-fatal shootings, one fatal assault, four non-fatal assaults, and three robberies.
Sussex County has two non-fatal assaults and one robbery.
Not a day goes by that I don’t reflect on the human cost behind the numbers. While it’s easy to say that Paterson is doing well compared to Jersey City and Newark in terms of violent crime, the crime that does occur affects real human lives. Each of these shootings, robberies, and burglaries means the world to someone, and it’s something that isn’t spoken to in these cold, hard statistics.

Two weeks of tracking North Jersey crime has led me to realize
That the world is a cold and scary place.
Not really. My opinion of the world remains optimistic and I haven’t fallen too far into cynicism. But the crime map and data collection offers a chilling view of the place in which I live. I’ve found a lot of local papers and news sources that provide police and crime reports that are missing on NJ.com and the Record’s website. So with a database of crime that’s much more complete, here are a few statistics and interesting cases.
From May 1, 2009 to the present hour, there have been two fatal shootings, eight non-fatal shootings, two fatal assaults, eighteen non-fatal serious assaults, eight robberies, fifty-nine burglaries, and sixteen other offenses – ranging from distribution of controlled substance to lewd acts to arson. The heaviest concentration of crime was in Paterson, not surprisingly, with another heavy concentration in Jersey City. There were two huge strings of burglaries as well that are possibly related – one in north Bergen County, one in north Essex. Other strings of burglaries appeared in the Meadowlands, in Nutley, and other locations as well.
It’s safe to say that Paterson, as well as south Passaic County in general, is a dangerous place. Clifton holds its own against Paterson in terms of crime, and surprisingly, Newark doesn’t appear to be as crime-filled as Passaic county, but it does have more serious crime, and the most murders so far.
A few of the interesting crimes that caught my eye from May 8 onwards:
Clifton had its fair share of robberies. On May 9, a 16-year-old boy walking down Federal Street was approached by 10-12 Hispanic juveniles, who asked “what’s popping,” and then proceeded to beat and rob the teenager. Another woman was robbed that same night outside a bar on Highland at 3 AM, choked and punched, her purse stolen. That very same day, four men broke into a house in Bloomfield, tied and duct-taped the owner, and robbed him – May 9 was a good day for robbers.
Police cracked down on drugs this week. On May 8, five Bloods were arrested at a Paterson stash house, and $500,000 of cocaine, heroin and ecstasy was seized, and a similar heroin bust took place a few days ago in Paramus. Speaking of Paterson, they had a ridiculous amount of shootings the weekend of May 9-10. On May 9, a 19-year-old was approached and shot in the legs, a 35-year-old took bullets in the arms and chest in a drive-by shooting, and a 45-year-old man was shot once in the back getting ice cream; the next day, a 30-year-old bystander to a gunfight was shot in the fingers, and walked himself to the hospital. The victims in these cases all seemed resigned to their fate, living in Paterson.
On Thursday, a man was stabbed in a Jersey City parking lot, and the culprits taken down by a “father-son crime-fighting team.”
Crime strikes even the richest towns – on May 11, an $8,000 solar panel was stolen from a house on Amira Lane in Kinnelon.
On May 11, a Hoboken man was arrested on the charge of “committing a lewd act” – namely, publicly masturbating on the 300 block of 1st Street.
So I’m going to keep going with this project, at least until the end of May. My map is filled up with dots, but most of these are burglaries, which are the predominant crime. I’ll keep this blog updated with my findings.

A look at crime - week 1
The first week of my crime experiment is over, and I’ve been listing and mapping the major crimes that have occurred in North Jersey’s five counties. What I’ve discovered is eye-opening, though not surprising. Crime is concentrated as I would have expected in Newark, Paterson, and Jersey City, though there were a few surprises in the data.
For one, a string of burglaries in the rural, upper-class Sussex County ended within the last few days, and in a strange parallel, so did a short burst of burglaries in poor, blighted Central Paterson. The suspect of the first was a middle-aged white heroin addict, another reminder that crime is not a specialized trait of certain races, ages, or classes.
There were two murders in North Jersey over this last week, and eight assaults severe enough to make the newspapers. The first murder took place in Newark, late on May 5, when two men were shot on Isabella Street. One was wounded with gunshots to the chest, the other was killed with gunshots to the head and chest; the killer has not been found. The second murder took place on Rosa Parks Boulevard in Paterson, where a 39-year-old man was stabbed multiple times the night of May 6, and left to die. Several more attempted murders and shootings took place as well.
There was a strange coincidence that four crimes took place in very close proximity to one another. Over the last week, there was a string of crime around Randolph, Netcong, Mount Arlington, and Roxbury – places out in the rural and much richer suburbs. All, however, were unrelated, and can be written off to coincidence. A hit and run on the highway, men brandishing a handgun at a policeman, a petty robbery at a strip mall– but most shocking of all, a stabbing at a house party in Roxbury. Some guests showed up uninvited to a party for a man getting out of the armed forces. They were denied entry – they came back with friends and knives, and stabbed the 22-year-old returning veteran four times, later being arrested, and their victim flown to Morristown Hospital. Such a brutal attack in a typically white and high-end suburb could go head to head with the worst assaults and crimes of Newark or Paterson.
Other notable events during this last week were numerous arrests and assaults at the Bamboozle music festival, an 11-year-old girl accidentally shot during a drive-by shooting in Newark, a 17-year-old high school student severely beaten with a lead pipe on a major Clifton street, and most bizarre of all, a man being shot in the head in Jersey City, and driving himself to the hospital, with only superficial wounds.
