Arthur Fletcher Leonard Rease, 39, known as Moosie or Uncle Moose, was shot during a string of violent events in Vineland, New Jersey, that began with a reported home invasion on the night of Sunday, April 13, 2014. In the early hours of Monday, April 14, 2014, shootings at two locations in Vineland left Rease with a gunshot wound to his back from a semi-automatic rifle; he was taken to Cooper University Hospital in Camden and died on Tuesday, April 15, 2014.

The incidents that night also killed 21-year-old Jonathan Candelario; two other people, including Rease’s brother, were wounded and survived. Authorities say the shootings are believed to be connected and involved individuals with prior interactions with law enforcement, but a clear motive has not been established. The Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office and Vineland Police Department continue to investigate, and no arrests or public identifications of suspects have been announced.
