In the early morning hours of Monday, May 18, 2026, the Greenville section of Jersey City was shattered by an act of violence that claimed the lives of two men. Inside a residence at 109-111 Old Bergen Road, Luis Quintero, a 53-year-old Jersey City resident, was found unresponsive alongside 52-year-old Kenneth Darby, also of Jersey City. Both men had sustained apparent gunshot wounds.
The grim discovery was made by Jersey City police officers who were responding to reports of shots fired in the area shortly after 1 a.m. Emergency services were quickly dispatched to the scene, and both Quintero and Darby were rushed to Jersey City Medical Center. Despite the efforts of medical personnel, both men were pronounced dead.
The Hudson County Prosecutor's Office Homicide Unit, in conjunction with the Jersey City Police Department, immediately launched an active and ongoing investigation into the double homicide. As detectives began to piece together the events that led to the fatal shootings, the community was left in shock and mourning. The investigation quickly focused on identifying a person of interest, and within days, authorities publicly identified a suspect.
The Hudson County Prosecutor's Office announced they were seeking the public's help in locating 18-year-old Treshawn Daniels of Jersey City. Daniels was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, attempted murder, unlawful possession of a weapon, and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. Authorities released Daniels's photo and urged the public not to approach him, as he is considered a suspect in the brutal slayings. As of the latest reports, Treshawn Daniels remains at large, and the investigation into the deaths of Luis Quintero and Kenneth Darby continues. The motive for the shooting has not been publicly released, and the case remains an open and active investigation pending the apprehension of the primary suspect. Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Treshawn Daniels is urged to contact the Hudson County Prosecutor's Office.
