Theron Alston, a 32-year-old Black/African American man from Magnolia, New Jersey, was shot in the early hours of May 8, 2018 at the Arborwood Apartments complex in Lindenwold near the 3900 building on East Gibbsboro Road. Officers responding to a call shortly after midnight found Alston alive but critically wounded by multiple gunshot injuries. He was treated at the scene, transported to Cooper University Hospital in Camden, and pronounced dead at approximately 3:23 a.m.

The Camden County Prosecutor’s Office opened and led an active investigation. No arrests had been reported and no suspect identity was released at that time. This was the second fatal shooting at Arborwood Apartments in just over a month, a detail that heightened concern among residents.

Anyone with information about what happened is asked to come forward and assist the ongoing investigation.
