An estimated 900 people, including politicians, prominent business leaders and one professional football player, descended on the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in downtown Newark to celebrate the decennial anniversary of the state’s branch of the Friendship Circle, a Chabad-Lubavitch program that pairs teenage volunteers with children with special needs.
On March 1, 1994, a gunman in a car opened fire on a van carrying more than a dozen Hasidic students as it began to cross the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan, critically wounding two young men and injuring two others.
The lone gunman, driving a blue Chevrolet Caprice equipped with a submachine gun, two 9mm guns, and a “street sweeper” shotgun, pursued the van full of terrified students across the bridge.
He fired in three separate bursts, spraying both sides of the van. He then disappeared into traffic as the van came to a stop at the Brooklyn end of the bridge.
The injured Yeshiva students were among dozens who were returning from a Manhattan hospital where the spiritual leader of the Lubavitch movement, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, had undergone minor surgery.

A Bronx cop with an Ivy League degree is preparing to sue the city, claiming his failure to write tickets for 18 months led to a violent confrontation with his boss.
Officer Anthony Minoia says he was assigned to a one-block beat known in the 42nd Precinct as the “punishment post” after a bad evaluation.
The Columbia grad says the fact that he didn’t write any tickets after that was not a protest against his boss, Deputy Inspector Timothy Bugge.
“I’m not going to pull out my summons book and write a summons because my boss is telling me he’s going to make it difficult for me if I don’t,” said Minoia, 46, an Air Force vet. “I don’t use my powers to make a deputy inspector get promoted.”
