A man sitting in a car was killed in a drive-by shooting in the South Ward Friday night, authorities said. Ahmad Rabb, 36, was sitting in the car with another man at 6:30 when an approaching car began shooting at them. After the gunfire stopped, the pair were able to drive the quarter-mile south to Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, according to the Essex County Prosecutor's Office. Rabb was pronounced dead at the hospital about three hours later, at 9:30 p.m. The other victim in the car is likely to survive, said Tom Fennelly, the chief assistant prosecutor in charge of the homicide and viper units. Fennelly said he didn't know why the two victims were in the car. The investigation was ongoing Saturday afternoon, he added.
