CALDWELL — Authorities are investigating a homicide in the borough on Bloomfield Avenue, the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office confirmed Sunday night.

The killing is the first known homicide in Caldwell this year and the second in the county this weekend, following the fatal shooting of a woman early Saturday morning on Hillside Terrace in Irvington.
The Irvington slaying was also that township’s first homicide of the year.
