On the afternoon of March 11, 2022, Eric C. Williams, a 50-year-old Black man, was found with fatal gunshot wounds at the intersection of Johnston Avenue and Front Street in Plainfield, New Jersey. Police were on the scene shortly before 4:00 p.m.; Williams was pronounced dead at the scene after first responders arrived.
Authorities arrested a 32-year-old Plainfield resident, Haneef Welch, later that same evening. Welch was charged with first-degree murder, unlawful possession of a weapon and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and was held in the Union County Jail pending legal proceedings.
What did anyone in Plainfield see or hear around Johnston Avenue and Front Street that Friday afternoon that might help explain what happened to Eric C. Williams?
