South Brunswick police issued a traffic alert as the highway was shut down around 3:30 p.m. Jan. 24.
Ex-con Shamar Leggette was the subject of a manhunt following the infamous 2022 gunpoint robbery of "Bling Bishop" Lamor Whitehead of Paramus during a live-streamed church service in Brooklyn.
Leggette, 41, also shot a man in Providence last September, authorities there said.
Members of the U.S. States Marshals Service NY/NJ Regional Task Force, assisting the New York office of the ATF, shot and killed Leggette in an exchange of gunfire at the MHO Inn and Suites on the highway's southbound side in Monmouth Junction.FULL STORY: Fugitive Hunted In 'Bling Bishop' Robbery Killed By US Marshals In South Brunswick Hotel Shootout
