PATERSON, N.J. - A man attending a block party as part of the National Night Out anti-crime initiative was shot and killed in Paterson, N.J.

Police say 39-year-old Robert Godfrey was shot in the head while arguing with another man Tuesday.

It happened in front of a crowd just before midnight at 74 Godwin Ave.

Paterson Police on Wednesday were searching for Marlon Rochester. The 30-year-old has been charged with Godfrey's murder and weapons offenses.

Lt. Ron Humphrey says witnesses saw the two men arguing loudly when Rochester pulled a gun and shot Godfrey once in the head.

National Night Out is observed across the U.S. as an annual event meant to heighten drug and crime prevention awareness.  The August 3rd event was the 27th annual night out against crime.

24 neighborhood block parties were scheduled in Paterson as part of the event."

Gee, I hope Marlon had the proper New Jersey permit and license to purchase and own a handgun!  They're pretty strict about that kind of thing in New Jersey.   Well, at least they only had one killing at the anti violence event.  By the way, wish they would have told us important things like what kind of cool clothes the two parties were wearing and what rappers performed at the event.
