A birthday gathering on Dogwood Road in Edgewater Park, New Jersey, ended in gunfire shortly before 1 a.m. on January 24, 2021. Two 29-year-old men were killed: James A. Gist III of Westampton was found dead in his car outside the home, and Marcus Thompson of Willingboro was found fatally shot inside the residence. Investigators concluded neither Gist nor Thompson was the intended target of the shooting and opened a homicide investigation.

No arrests were reported in the immediate aftermath, and the community grappled with the sudden loss of both men. Months later the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office and Edgewater Park Township Police were still handling the case; in May 2021 an arrest was made and another suspect surrendered in June 2021. What else is known about the night on Dogwood Road, or does anyone have information that could help the investigation?
