According to the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office, West Orange police responded to the 100 block of Lakeside Avenue at 12:22 p.m. Officers found an adult male with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:44 p.m., police said.

NJ Pedestrian Dies 2 Weeks After Car Hit
A pedestrian died nearly two weeks after being hit at Old White Horse Pike and Hendricks Avenue in Waterford Township on Jan. 26, police said. The identity of the victim was not immediately made clear.
The driver of the vehicle stayed at the location during an initial investigation, Waterford Township police said. The ongoing investigation is being conducted by local and county authorities.
Mahwah Woman On Life Support After Car Hit
Belina Ang, 56, of Mahwah, is currently on life support after she was hit by a pickup truck outside her job in East Rutherford Tuesday evening, according to a GoFundMe fundraiser. Ang was attempting to cross Hackensack Street when a driver making a left turn on Union Avenue struck her, NJ.com reported.
The driver, a 33-year-old Carlstadt man, stayed at the scene during an initial police investigation. No charges have been filed thus far, NJ.com added.
“She was put on life support, but sadly, declared brain dead by the doctors,” the GoFundMe page reads. “Belina’s husband, Takis, and their daughter and son, Daphne, and George, made the decision to donate some of her organs.”
Ang , a IT securities worker, was a loving wife and mother and assisted with Mahwah Youth Tennis, Scouts BSA Mahwah Troop 258, and the Mahwah Marching Thunderbirds.
“Any time assistance was needed, Belina showed up and looked out for all of the students, as if they were her own children,” the fundraiser adds. “Belina often took vacation from work to help out at the Mahwah Marching Thunderbird Band Camp … on particularly hot days, Belina was seen on the field hosing the kids down to keep them cool.”
Man Stabbed Outside Bergen County Bar
A 31-year-old man was found stabbed outside a Bergen County bar early Sunday morning, authorities said.
The victim, who was found with apparent stab wounds to his torso, was found at about 12:44 a.m. outside 131 Monroe St., the address for JoJo’s Bar & Grill, the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office said in a statement.
The victim was transported to Hackensack University Medical Center but his condition was not made clear. The incident is currently under investigation.

San Diego Wave FC Unveils “Balboa Park Kit”: New Community Jersey for 2026 Season – San Diego Wave Fútbol Club
Wave FC introduce all-new community kit inspired by San Diego’s Historic Balboa Park
Since 1868, Balboa Park has served as the city’s creative commons. Spanning 1,200 acres, the park is home to world-class museums, performing arts institutions, community gathering spaces, and everyday moments that define life in San Diego, from pickup soccer games to family picnics and cultural celebrations. Larger than New York’s Central Park and Chicago’s Millennium Park combined, Balboa Park represents the depth, diversity, and creative energy of the region.
Designed in collaboration with Nike, the bespoke kit draws the park’s historic architecture and vibrant tilework. The sleeve cuffs and collar feature the vibrant colors of pink, orange and blue, and patterns from Balboa Park’s tilework, translating architectural detail into wearable design.
Kaiser Permanente, who continues to serve as the official team physicians of Wave FC, is proudly featured on the front of the Balboa Park Kit for the fifth consecutive season. Additionally, San Diego based global leader in glucose management, Dexcom, the Club’s official glucose biosensing partner, is returning for the third year and will be featured on the right sleeve. The Club’s pride mark, a compass symbolizing direction, unity and purpose, is displayed on the lower left corner of the new jersey.
To celebrate the launch, San Diego Wave FC will host its 2026 Jersey Launch Event, presented by Jameson Irish Whiskey, tonight, February 26, at Plaza de Panama in Balboa Park, from 4-8 p.m. PT. The free, public event, will feature live entertainment, exclusive access to the Balboa Kit, giveaways, a Fifth Season museum experience, and community activations spotlighting leaders and organizations from across Balboa Park cultural community.
As part of the event, a portion of proceeds from the Balboa Park Kit will be donated to Forever Balboa Park, supporting the preservation, accessibility, and future of the park for generations to come. Fans can donate directly to Forever Balboa Park here. The San Diego Museum of Art will provide a complimentary gift to all Season Ticket Members at gift pickup for fans to use throughout the museum’s Centennial Celebration. Wave FC players will be in attendance throughout the evening, connecting the fans and celebrating the launch alongside the community.
Fans who purchase a Balboa Park Kit at the event or online on the day of launch will receive an exclusive Fifth Anniversary patch, commemorating the Club’s fifth season.
The Balboa Park Kit joins the Altamar Kit as part of San Diego’s full 2026 jersey collection and is now available here. Fans can select “pick up at event” for an expedited entry line at the Balboa Park event.
