Police Hunt Killers of Men at the Jersey Shore

🔴     3 Unsolved Murders in NJ

           🔴     Rewards Offered for Information

        🔴     Families Desperate for Closure

It's been over two years since gunshots rang out in 3 separate incidents at the Jersey Shore.

When it was over, three young men were dead.

Despite best efforts by the police, the perpetrators have yet to be identified.

Police have turned to the public, believing that someone has information that could lead to identifying and apprehending the murderers.

Who Murdered Marques Mills

In the first unsolved murder, Neptune Police were called to the intersection of Hillview Drive and Edgemere Road on May 14, 2022.

Upon their arrival, police discovered a 39-year-old man, identified as Marques Mills, still in his car with gunshot wounds.

Mills was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, where he passed away the next day.

Who Murdered Ayres Gray Jr.

Later that summer, on July 4th, Neptune Police responded to a similar situation at South Concourse in the township.

They arrived on the scene, they discovered another young man with gunshot wounds in his car.

The man, 26-year-old Ayres Gray Jr. was transported to the hospital, where he died a short time later.

Who Murdered Kyshon Washington-Walker

On July 28th, Asbury Park Police were dispatched to Sewall Ave where they found 33-year-old Kyshon Washington-Walker.

Washington-Walker had multiple gunshot wounds and was transported to the hospital where he passed away a short time later.

There appear to be similarities in these crimes, but police haven't said whether there's a connection.

All three men were said to be good family men with bright futures.

Their families have suffered unthinkable devastation and are hoping someone comes forward with information that will allow the families to have some closure.

In an interview with ABC7 in New York last year, then-acting Monmouth County Prosecutor Lori Linskey said this about the men,

One of them had just spent time with his friends, Another had just had dinner with his mom. A third had just stopped by his parent's house to say hello and was on his way over to see his girlfriend. Each of these men had people who loved them dearly and every reason to expect many more years of happiness and prosperity, and each had it all torn away from them in sudden, violent fashion.
