Officials say the victims had gathered for a vigil near the scene where 17-year-old Quadre Robinson and 19-year-old Quayim Battle were found dead after crashing a sport utility vehicle into a home.

The home had structural damage and the occupants were evacuated. The vehicle had been reported stolen in Elizabeth, New Jersey.

The mayor of Newark is calling on the public to come forward to help solve the shooting.

Mayor Ras Baraka also announced a reward of up to $50,000 Sunday for information leading to arrest and conviction in what he called "a cowardly act of hatred that pierced the hearts of all in our community."
