White was among nearly two dozen people wounded in the June 17 shooting.
About 1,000 people were attending the Art All Night Trenton festival that showcases local art, music, food and films when shots rang. Authorities have said several neighborhood gangs had a dispute, and multiple suspects began shooting at each other, with police returning fire.
One suspect, 33-year-old Tahaij Wells, was killed.
