Summary
A Newark man has been convicted of murder after shooting a victim in the back on Bergen Street. Meanwhile, Mars Wrigley is shutting down its U.S. headquarters in Newark, laying off 307 workers over the next 18 months — though manufacturing in Hackettstown continues. This marks another blow to New Jersey’s manufacturing base as big companies relocate.

The layoffs are legally reported, with operations moving to Chicago — and more local developments are unfolding as Newark navigates change.
