Jersey City man, 27, fatally shot in head early this morning
from "The Jersey Journal," August 30, 2009, 3:35 p.m.

A 27-year-old Jersey City man was fatally shot in the head early this morning, Hudson County Prosecutor Edward DeFazio said.

Christopher Felder, of Stegman Street, was shot in the back of his head in the courtyard of Booker T. Washington housing complex at Bright and Fremont streets at around 3 a.m. The bullet exited just over his right eye, DeFazio said.

DeFazio said investigators believe he died from the single gunshot wound but said but an autopsy report will determine the the exact cause and manner of death.

The prosecutor said at least two shots were fired at Felder, who was with a large group, and they were fired from some distance.

DeFazio said the motive for the shooting has not been established but it did not appear to be a robbery.

In the courtyard of the complex this afternoon, family members described Felder as an "angel," a beautiful person and a "hard working young man," who just celebrated his birthday on Thursday and had been working for about eight years at Christ Hospital as a maintenance worker.

Felder, who graduated from Ferris High School in 2000, had two brothers.

His grandmother Carrie Walters, 68, said that she last time she saw Felder was 9 p.m. last night when he had carried a bag of groceries to her apartment, and said, "I will see you later."
