Hull was taken to Cooper Hospital in Camden where he died about a week later.

According to prosecutors, surveillance footage from the complex showed Wallace approach the victim and his friends and fire four shots at them from what was determined to be a 9mm firearm, which he was not allowed to have due to a prior conviction.

He was eventually located in Phoenix, AZ, on August 12th of that year and extradited to New Jersey.

Wallace faces 30 years to life in state prison when he is sentenced on December 6th.
