Authorities said they used surveillance video, witnesses’ statements, and phone records to track down the man who they believe fatally shot a New Jersey councilwoman outside her home. He was arrested in Virginia, some 300 miles away from the crime scene.

“This was a very complex [and] extensive case,” Ciccone said. “The murder has shaken the community and no arrest will bring back the late councilwoman.”Dwumfour, a business analyst, IT professional and part-time EMT worker, had served on the borough council since 2022 after she scored an upset victory over her Democratic opponent.
The months-long investigation found Bynum’s number saved as a contact in the council woman’s phone with the acronym FCF, which authorities believe stood for the Fire Congress Fellowship, a church Dwumfour once belonged to. That church is also associated with the Champions Royal Assembly, which Dwumfour belonged to. Authorities on Tuesday did not share whether the congresswoman knew Bynum at the time of the shooting.
