Khalil Griffin-Gibbs, a 2014 graduate of West Windsor Plainsboro High South who played varsity basketball when he was a student, died Monday night after being shot in Trenton.
The murder is the first killing in Trenton in 2021. The capital city saw a record 40 murders last year but had gone more than two months without another one until this week.
At about 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Trenton police responded to 110 Sanhican Drive on reports that two people were shot. When they arrived, officers discovered Griffin-Gibbs and another man who had been shot in front of the Sunoco Service Station. Both men were transported to the hospital.

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) A recreational marijuana marketplace, cannabis decriminalization and looser penalties for underage possession of the drug and alcohol became law Monday in New Jersey, more than three months after voters overwhelmingly approved a ballot question to legalize adult use of the drug.
Acknowledging that the legislation took much longer to be enacted than expected, Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy cast aside critics’ attacks the legislation was about filling the state’s coffers with tax revenue or easing penalties on underage possession to the point of making policing difficult.
“The reason I signed these bills, the reason why we’ve been in this fight is for social justice,” he said Monday during a news conference.
