The victim was identified as 31-year-old Luis Vazquez-Garcia.
Around 9:30 p.m. on May 17, police responded to a reported shooting in Camden, New Jersey, according to prosecutors. When officers arrived, they found Vazquez-Garcia with gunshot wounds. The victim was inside a vehicle.
Vazquez-Garcia was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
