A New Jersey city councilwoman was shot dead in New Jersey Wednesday evening in what appears to be a targeted killing.

Sayreville Councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour, a 30-year-old Republican serving her first term in elected office, was found dead in her vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds, according to news reports.

Sayreville Mayor Victoria Kilpatrick called the incident “horrifying.”

Law enforcement officials have not said whether they have a suspect in the killing.

This was the scene overnight in the Sayreville development known as La Mer, where a 30-year-old Councilwoman was murdered.
