Full Notification

UPDATE:
Moorestown police were called to a residence in the 700 block of Hartford Road at 12:23 a.m. today on a report of a home invasion. Upon arrival, police found an unresponsive adult male in the home who was later pronounced dead at the scene from apparent stab wounds.

The resident who made the call indicated to responding police officers that two men had broken into his home, a struggle ensued, and he stabbed them both.

Detectives are investigating whether a man who arrived at Lourdes Medical Center of Burlington County in Willingboro later this morning with a stab wound to the leg is connected to this incident.

The investigation is ongoing and, as of this time, no charges have been filed. The name of the decedent is being withheld until his identification has been officially established. An autopsy is pending.

The case is being investigated by detectives from the Moorestown Police Department and the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office. Officers from the Cinnaminson, Delran, Maple Shade and Mount Laurel police departments also responded to the call.
