On the afternoon of January 4, 2023, gunfire erupted in the Woodbury, New Jersey, neighborhood near Franklin and Wallace streets. Responding officers found 21-year-old Brandon L. Blanton inside a home with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to Cooper University Hospital and pronounced dead. The Gloucester County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide from gunshot wounds.

Investigators say the shooting was tied to a planned marijuana transaction rather than a random attack. Witnesses reported a man in dark clothing approach Blanton’s vehicle, speak with him for several minutes, then three shots were heard; the man fled. Authorities identified 22-year-old Tyler McKinney of Philadelphia as a suspect, and an arrest warrant was issued. McKinney surrendered to the U.S. Marshals Regional Fugitive Task Force on January 8, 2023, and was charged with murder, felony murder, robbery, and weapons offenses; police allege he shot Blanton in the chest and torso and stole his phone and iPod.
