JUST IN: New Jersey State Police say a man has been arrested and charged with the murder of 23-year-old Jonathan Morris, a missing Bridgeton man who was found dead Monday.
State police say an investigation led them to identify Perez as the suspect in Morris’ disappearance, and detectives arrested him at his home on Monday. Morris’s body was found about 15 feet from the roadway on Archie Platt Road covered in snow shortly thereafter.
According to investigators, Perez allegedly shot and killed Morris inside his vehicle in Bridgeton City, then drove to Archie Platt Road. Perez, according to police, then dumped Morris’s body and abandoned the vehicle before he went to a home on Cottage Avenue in an attempt to get rid of any evidence.CBS3
