NEWARK, N.J., Aug. 11 (UPI) -- Newark police were looking Saturday for a fourth suspect in the schoolyard slayings of three college students in an apparent robbery.

Mayor Cory Booker announced Rudolfo “Gomez” Godinez, 24, was being sought in connection with the execution-style shootings that left three youths dead and a fourth injured.

WNBC-TV in New York said Godinez’s role in the crime was not revealed; however he is wanted on a raft of charges, including murder and robbery. Three other suspects are in custody, including two juveniles.

The funerals of the three people killed were held Saturday.
