One teen dead, another hurt in Willingboro shooting

Gunfire snuffs out a Willingboro 16-year-old's life, and sends another teen to hospitalization.

Ibn Perry was one of several teens outside the Plumtree Lane house where he lived, when bullets began flying from across the street at about 8 PM Monday, according Burlington County Prosecutor Robert D. Bernardi and Willingboro Public Safety Director Gregory Rucker.

Perry was pronounced dead at the scene. His body undergoes autopsy today by Burlington County Medical Examiner Dr. Ian Hood.

Another 16-year-old was treated at Lourdes Medical Center in Willingboro, for a bullet wound in an ankle, authorities said. A third teen was unhurt.

Investigators have not recovered any weapons, completed any arrests, or established a motive.

Detectives urge anyone aware of details that can help advance the investigation to call the Willingboro Township PD Tip Line, 609-877-6958, or Burlington County Central Communications, 609-265-7113.
