Recent NJ high school grad killed in robbery

LINDEN, N.J. - July 10, 2012 (WPVI) -- Authorities in northern New Jersey are looking for a suspect in the deadly armed robbery of an 18-year-old who was gunned down weeks after her high school graduation.

The Union County prosecutor says Amber Wilson was walking from a Dunkin' Donuts in Linden with a friend when she was approached, shot and robbed late Monday night.

The prosecutor's office says words were exchanged and people reported hearing an argument before the gunfire.

Wilson graduated from Linden High School last month. A statement on the school's website Tuesday said the school community was saddened by her death.
