In the spring of 2019, the life of 28-year-old Tuason R. Wise, a male resident of Irvington, New Jersey, was tragically cut short. On Thursday, May 2, 2019, Wise was discovered in his apartment located in the 100 block of Carolina Avenue, having sustained a fatal gunshot wound. Authorities pronounced him dead at the scene at 12:50 a.m.
The Essex County Prosecutor's Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force immediately launched an investigation into the shooting.
In the days following the discovery of Wise's body, law enforcement officials announced that the investigation was active and ongoing. They appealed to the public for any information that might lead to a break in the case.
Despite the initial announcement of an active investigation, there has been no publicly available information regarding any arrests made or suspects identified in connection with the death of Tuason Wise. The case remains an unsolved homicide, leaving a void of answers for his family and community. The circumstances surrounding the shooting and the motive behind it remain undisclosed to the public as the investigation continues.
