2 Killed In Triple Shooting On Easter Sunday In South Jersey: PO

Two people were killed and another was injured in a tragic triple shooting on Easter Sunday in South Jersey, authorities announced.

Camden County Police officers discovered two women inside a car and a 17-year-old boy lying on the ground on the 2900 block of Pearce Street in Camden early Sunday morning, April 21, Camden County Prosecutor Mary Eva Colalillo and Camden County Police Chief Scott Thomson announced.

All three were unresponsive and suffering from gunshot wounds, authorities said. They were taken to a nearby hospital, where the 17-year-old and 19-year-old Shirleen Caban, both of Camden, were pronounced dead shortly before 1 a.m.

An 18-year-old woman from Sewell is being treated. Police were responding to the scene in response to a ShotSpotter activation at about 12:37 a.m. The investigation is ongoing, and no arrests had been made as of Monday morning.

While authorities didn't identify the 17-year-old who was killed, Woodrow Wilson High School identified him as Sincere Howard on its Facebook page.

Howard was honored as one of Camden's Most Improved Students in February, according to the Courier Post. Caban is a graduate of Camden Academy Charter High School. The scene in which they were killed was described as a "chill spot," and "not one of those places you get shot at" by friends at a memorial over the weekend.
