Apparently Mustafa, who was turning his life around, entered the store and tried to help them reduce their inventory when the store&#8217;s owner fired his gun at young Mustafa;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Sheffield threatened to shoot several of the owner&#8217;s relatives and ordered the man to fill a backpack with money and gold around 3:30 p.m., Murray said.<\/p>\n<p>During the course of the robbery, the store owner pulled out a weapon from behind the counter and shot Sheffield once, Newark Police Director Samuel DeMaio said. Sheffield died a short time later at University Hospital in Newark.<\/p>\n<p>Criminal charges have not been filed against the store owner, whose identity was withheld, but Murray said the matter will likely be presented to a grand jury.
