Hamilton woman murdered in Ewing

EWING — A Hamilton woman was taken off life support early Monday morning after she was shot just after midnight on Sunday.

Danielle Schrenk, 21, of Hamilton, was sitting in a parked car on Rosedale Avenue between Morse and Parkside Avenues with a friend when she was shot from outside her black Honda Accord.

The exact circumstances of the shooting remain under investigation, but a source told The Trentonian that the early signs indicate a drug deal gone bad. Schrenk and her friend were at the corner of Morse and Rosedale Avenues for the alleged purposes of buying drugs. A dispute broke out between the dealer and friend that led to the dealer firing one or two shots at the friend. Those bullets missed the friend and struck Schrenk in the back.
