Russell Heller, who is 51 years old, was just elected to serve on the council of Milford, Connecticut.
Russell Heller, another council member in New Jersey, was shot down in his car a week after Eunice Dwumfour, a councilwoman, was killed in the same state.
On Wednesday morning, just a little after 7 o’clock, officers were summoned to the PSE&G facility located in Franklin Township in response to allegations of a gunshot having taken place there.
According to the Somerset County Prosecutor, the body of Heller, who was 51 years old, was found in the parking lot of his car. In addition to his 11 years of experience working as a senior distribution supervisor for the company, it is said that he served as a counselor in the municipality of Milford, which is located in Hunterdon County.
In an interview with NJ.com, the mayor of Milford, Henri Schepens, sent the town’s condolences, saying, “The Milford Borough Council is tremendously devastated by the passing, and our hearts go out to his family.” “It is hard to comprehend that he has passed away given that he always gave off the impression of being so vibrant. In the history of the borough, there has never been an incident of this like. Because of this, we are feeling rather uneasy.”
