Jacqueline Martin, 59, was found dead inside an apartment on Lee Street in Woodstown, New Jersey, on the evening of Saturday, May 30, 2026. Police were called at about 5:30 p.m.; officers discovered she had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and she was pronounced dead at the scene. Early information released by authorities described the shooting as targeted and said there was no evidence of an ongoing threat to the public.

Investigators quickly focused on someone close to Martin. Authorities identified 27-year-old Leroy Martin Jr., her nephew and a resident of the same home, and said the two had been involved in a domestic dispute shortly before the shooting. After the killing, Leroy Martin Jr. allegedly fled in Jacqueline’s vehicle. That car was recovered in Camden on May 31, and investigators traced movements through parts of Salem, Gloucester, Camden and possibly Cumberland counties while multiple agencies, including the U.S. Marshals NY/NJ Regional Fugitive Task Force, searched for him.

Leroy Martin Jr. was arrested in Camden on Thursday, June 4, 2026, without incident and charged with murder, criminal restraint and weapons offenses. No other suspects have been publicly named. If anyone knew Jacqueline or saw activity around the Lee Street apartment that evening, please share what was observed.
