On the early morning of Sunday, September 20, 2020, 38-year-old Jermaine Wilkes, known as NuNu, was fatally shot during a birthday party inside the Wheels of Soul motorcycle club on the 800 block of Princess Avenue in Camden, New Jersey. Gunfire erupted on the dance floor; Wilkes was found lying in the street outside the club and was pronounced dead at the scene. His friend, 32-year-old Jamill Jenkins, was also killed in the same shooting.

Wilkes had been working to rebuild his life after serving three years in prison. He was a father of two, lived with his girlfriend, worked at the Cheese Steak Factory in Center City, and more recently helped in his father’s moving business. He hoped to save for a house and start his own moving company.

As of November 2020 the person or persons responsible had not been apprehended and detectives from the Camden County Police Department were seeking witnesses who were at the party to help identify the shooter. If anyone attended that party or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
