Anthony Anglin was pronounced dead at 6:25 p.m., they said.
By the end of this past weekend, 13 of those shot in Paterson this year had died and 93 were wounded.
The shooting of a 31-year-old Belleville resident on Nagle Street on Saturday led to attempted murder charges against 26-year-old ex-con Carlos Colon of Paterson. Authorities also charged him with various weapons offenses, including being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
