An Ocean County Grand Jury has indicted a Jackson Township man in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred last fall at an apartment complex in the township.

Bradley D. Billhimer announced that on February 18, 2026, Shaquille Green, 30, of Jackson Township, was indicted on charges of Murder, Possession of a Weapon for an Unlawful Purpose, and Unlawful Possession of a Weapon. The charges stem from the September 6, 2025 death of 28-year-old Toraya Reid, also of Jackson.

According to authorities, on September 6, 2025, at approximately 11:00 a.m., officers from the Jackson Township Police Department responded to a 911 call reporting shots fired and an unresponsive female in the roadway at the Paragon Apartment Complex on Larsen Road.

Responding officers located a deceased woman near the exit of the complex who had sustained multiple gunshot wounds. The victim was later identified as Reid.

Additional officers observed a male, later identified as Green, running on North New Prospect Road. He was taken into custody without incident and transported to police headquarters.

A subsequent investigation conducted by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crime Unit, the Jackson Township Police Department, and the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigation Unit identified Green — who had reportedly been in a dating relationship with Reid — as the individual responsible for her death. He was formally charged and transported to the Ocean County Jail, where he remains detained pending trial.
