NEPTUNE – Two men have been indicted on charges connecting them to a 2022 fatal shooting, officials said.
Kedrick Chatmon, 37, of Keansburg, and Lamare R. Walker, 45, of Barnegat, were both indicted on one count each of first-degree Murder and first-degree Conspiracy to Commit Murder in connection to the death of 39-year-old Marques Mills of Neptune Township. Chatmon was also indicted on various weapons offenses as well.
The shooting took place on May 14, 2022, at around 11 p.m. at the intersection of Hillview Drive and Edgemere Road. Mills was found inside a car parked in the driveway of his home, and had sustained multiple gunshot wounds. He was brought to Jersey Shore University Medical Center where he succumbed to his injuries the following morning, officials said.
It was later determined that both Chatmon and Walker were the individuals responsible. They were located and apprehended on November 21, 2024, with Chatmon being located in Keansburg and Walker was taken into custody in Barnegat. They were transported to the Monmouth County Correctional Institution (MCCI), where they both remain incarcerated pending detention hearings scheduled to take place on December 3.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact MCPO Detective Matthew Delgado at 800-533-7443 or Neptune Township Police Department Detective Robert Hagerman at 732-988-8000.
Despite these charges, every defendant is presumed innocent, unless and until found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, following a trial at which the defendant has all of the trial rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and State law.
