Authorities have charged Plainfield resident Harold Tucker in a gang-related South Plainfield murder. |
Authorities have charged another Plainfield resident, Harold Tucker (see above) with the murder.
The Courier reports that the woman who was reported shot on Sampton Avenue, also yesterday by Plainfield Today, evidently took her own life (see here).

Just a thought? How is it that the South Plainfield Police and the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office was able to solve this "Gang Related" incident in about 24 hours and PLAINFIELD is unable to solve ANY of the recent 'GANG RELATED" shootings?
i just read the star ledger article and the mayor DID NOT say it WAS gang related. he said it APPEARED to be gang related.
horrible reporting AGAIN Dan.
@ 7:02 AM -- in the body of the post, I wrote 'said to be', which is the equivalent of 'appeared'.
Headlines are of necessity abbreviated.
When you start your blog, you can write your headlines any way you like -- and I, for one, will not hold it against you.
Fair enough?
Dan this was not gang related. Quadir was not a member of a gang, he was a muslim brother. Please report facts. It seen that every time there is a murder of a African American you always say it's gang related. Get It RIGHT
To 659... you forget, as was stated in the past, Plainfield does not have any gangs.
Former mayor Al McWilliams (may he rest in peace) consistently denied that there were gangs in Plainfield. And his flak, Dan Damon, dutifully echoed the party line. BUT--we had gangs back then and we have them now; they're just more visible and Plainfield gets more thorough media coverage.
