Authorities have still not made an arrest in a shooting that injured a Newark pastor nearly a week since the incident.
Pastor Timothy Huff was critically injured in the incident and is in the intensive care unit at University Hospital, according to a relative. He remains in critical condition.
Police are trying to identify the shooter.
Investigators have obtained surveillance video from a neighbor’s Ring camera. It shows two young women leaving the neighborhood after firing two shots into the house. One of those bullets penetrated the house before lodging in Huff’s chest.
Huff is the pastor at Green Pasture Baptist Church in East Orange. He was not able to lead services on Sunday.
Newark police would not release many other details but say the investigation is ongoing.
