Anthony Harden, an Allentown man, was shot in the lower chest on East State Street in Trenton Tuesday evening and died early Wednesday at a hospital. A witness saw the suspect, 43-year-old Leon DeShields III of Camden, flee toward the train station and helped police locate him near the River LINE station before he boarded a train. Authorities said DeShields had a .380-caliber handgun when arrested and charged him with attempted murder and weapons offenses; prosecutors are seeking his detention pending trial. The Mercer County Homicide Task Force is assisting with the ongoing investigation, and authorities said additional charges may follow.
