On the morning of Saturday, October 26, 2024, 41-year-old Bonnie N. Hitchens was found unresponsive in the passenger seat of a vehicle parked at the Alpha & Omega Food Market and Laundromat on East Green Street in Millville, New Jersey. She had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to Inspira Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead. A 32-year-old man driving the vehicle was also shot multiple times but survived.

Known as Bon Bon, Hitchens was a mother of five. Her brother James Hitchens remembered her as devoted to family, someone whose smile and laugh were infectious. An obituary described her as the life of any party who worked previously as a cashier and a Certified Nursing Assistant. The Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office investigated the shooting and arrested two people, 34-year-old Eric Bundy-Johnson and 34-year-old Francessca Delvalle, who are facing murder charges in connection with her death. No motive has been publicly disclosed.

If anyone knew Bonnie or has information about what happened at the Alpha & Omega Food Market and Laundromat that morning, please come forward with tips.
