A New Jersey woman has been arrested and charged with brutally and repeatedly stabbing a man outside a Wawa in Egg Harbor, officials announced Friday.
Officers with the Berlin Township Police Department responded to parking lot of the Wawa just before 2:45 p.m. Friday, according to the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office.
When they arrived on the scene, tucked in the 400 block of Route 73, they discovered a 35-year-old man suffering from multiple stab wounds, officials said. He was transported by helicopter to Cooper University Hospital, where he remained in critical condition as of Saturday afternoon. He has not been publicly identified.
During a subsequent search of the area, responding officers found Kelli Feaster hiding out behind the Wawa and took her into custody. She’s facing charges including first-degree attempted murder, second-degree aggravated assault and related weapons offenses.
“The victim and suspect appear to have been acquainted,” the prosecutor’s office said in a statement, stopping short of defining their relationship. “There is no threat to the community at this time.”
Authorities have releasef few other details about the violence, but an investigation into the stabbing is ongoing. Anyone with information has been asked to call the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crimes Unit.
