A Camden County man was arrested Tuesday in the fatal shooting last week of a 24-year-old in Gloucester Township, officials said.
Hasan Battie, 21, of Gloucester Township was arrested on April 22 by U.S. Marshals in Camden and charged with first-degree murder and second-degree weapons offenses in the slaying of Nasir Tart, 24, also of Gloucester Township, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said.
Gloucester Township police were sent to a residence in the LaCascata development at 5:27 p.m. on April 16 for a report of a shooting, authorities said. Officers found Tart suffering from a gunshot wound and he was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.
Battie is being held at the Camden County Correctional Facility pending a pre-trial detention hearing.
An attorney for Battie was not listed Tuesday afternoon.
