Late on October 28, 2017, 28-year-old Lamar Gresham was found inside his car at the Oyster Bay condominium complex in Absecon, New Jersey, the victim of a fatal shooting. Residents had reported hearing multiple gunshots, and law enforcement located Gresham, who had previously lived in Pleasantville and Mays Landing, unresponsive in the vehicle; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crimes Unit and the Absecon Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

At the time of reporting no suspects or arrests were publicly identified. Family and acquaintances remembered Gresham as a caring and funny person; the violent death shocked residents of the typically quiet neighborhood.

If anyone heard or saw anything on the night of October 28, 2017, please come forward with information.
