Man Sentenced For Murder In South Jersey Parking Lot
Darryl Wallace shot the victim in the head and left him lying in the apartment complex's parking lot.
BRIDGETON, NJ — An Ohio man was sentenced Monday to 60 years in prison for fatally shooting another man in a South Jersey parking lot four years ago.
Darryl Wallace's sentencing stems from a June 2021 shooting at the Carlton House Apartment Complex in Millville.
Surveillance footage from the complex showed Wallace approaching the victim — Dominick Hull, 28, of Bridgeton — and the victim's friends. Wallace fired four shots at them, according to the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office.
