MAYS LANDING — An Atlantic City man, the last of six people charged in a 2016 gang-related shooting inside the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, has pleaded guilty, Atlantic County Prosecutor Damon G. Tyner announced Wednesday. The defendant was identified as Taquay Dunston of Atlantic City. Prosecutors said he admitted his role in the shooting, which took place on the 25th floor of the Taj Mahal during the start of the Easter holiday weekend on March 25, 2016, when he was 17 years old. According to the prosecutor’s office, an investigation by the Atlantic City Police Department’s Violent Crimes Unit found that about 20 teenagers had attended a party in a Taj Mahal hotel room. The party ended in a shooting between two rival Atlantic City gangs. Surveillance video allegedly captured Dunston firing a handgun into the hotel room. Prosecutors said the shooting was tied to an ongoing dispute between the gangs. Four males affiliated with the rival groups were struck during the exchange of gunfire. Detectives recovered four loaded handguns, including a 9mm semiautomatic weapon, a .38-caliber revolver, a .40-caliber semiautomatic weapon and a .22-caliber revolver. The article also notes that another defendant, Quashawn Harris, then 18, pleaded guilty on Jan. 24, 2018, after being waived from Juvenile Court in January 2017. He pleaded guilty to possession of a handgun for an unlawful purpose. Prosecutors said he was subject to an agreement calling for a seven-year sentence with a period of parole ineligibility of three and a half years. Because he was 15 when the crime occurred, he was expected to serve his term in a juvenile facility. Dunston was described as the final defendant among the six people charged in the case to plead guilty.
