LAKEWOOD --- A calm conversation with a pedestrian erupted into a fatal shooting Friday, leaving a Lakewood police officer dead from point-blank gunshots and authorities hot on the heels of a teenage suspect.
Officer Christopher Matlosz, 27, was driving in his police cruiser Friday afternoon when he stopped to talk with a pedestrian, authorities said. After a brief exchange, the assailant stepped back, pulled out a handgun and opened fire. Matlosz was shot three times at close range, still sitting behind the wheel in the driver’s seat, his gun in his holster.
"That’s how quick the whole thing occurred," Ocean County Prosecutor Marlene Lynch Ford said. "Our goal is to identify the perpetrator of this particularly heinous, execution-style murder and bring that person to justice."
Witnesses described the assailant as a stocky black male about 5 feet, 8 inches tall and in his late teens or early 20s, police said. He was reportedly wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and dark sagging jeans.
"We have someone who obviously has no soul," Ford said. "We do have several significant leads that we’re following through on."

This won't be big news because it's not fashionable to mourn dead police, only dead black thugs.
