On the afternoon of November 29, 2019, William McWhorter, 46, of Philadelphia was shot on the 700 block of Tulip Street in Camden, New Jersey. Camden County police were called after reports of a man shot at about 3:27 p.m.; McWhorter was taken to Cooper University Hospital and pronounced dead at 3:47 p.m.

Surveillance footage from the area played a central role in the investigation. Video shows a short-statured individual with a large beard and a noticeable gait near the scene; that person was later identified as 30-year-old Camden resident Jamil Beatty. Investigators recovered a mask from a nearby empty lot and sent it for forensic testing, and a 9mm shell casing found in a car linked to Beatty was matched to a casing from the crime scene.

On January 8, 2020, Beatty was arrested at his home and charged with first-degree murder and held at the Camden County jail pending court proceedings. Does anyone have information about McWhorter or his movements in Camden that day?
