THREE teenagers were lined up against a wall of a school carpark and
shot in the head in a shocking triple murder in the US for which police
have found no motive.
While the precise ages of the victims was not immediately known, reports
from the scene in New Jersey have said they were all teenagers.
Identification tags from Delaware State University were found on the
bodies, police have said.
The three were killed execution-style in a school carpark in Newark.
They were named as Ofemi Hightower, Terrance Aeriel and Deshawn Harvey.
A fourth victim was wounded in the shooting. The injured 19-year-old
woman was the sister of one of those murdered.
She is recovering in hospital.
Police have said they have made no arrests and have no idea of the
motive behind the shocking slayings.
A spokesman for the local prosecutor's office said: "All four were good
kids".
"They never had any issues with the law," the spokesman was quoted by
the NJ.com website as saying. "It's a real tragedy."
That report suggested there may have been a confrontation between the
victims and another group before the killings.
It said the shootings took place near the playground of the Mt Vernon
School.
