Murder suspect from Edison apprehended in Georgia

An Edison man who was wanted in connection to the fatal shooting of a New Brunswick man has been apprehended.

Christopher “C-Dub” Thompson, 26, was located at a residence in Lithonia, Georgia, by U.S. Marshals on Nov. 15, according to information provided by Middlesex County Prosecutor Andrew C. Carey. He is charged with murder, attempted murder and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose.

An extensive search for Thompson included the coordinated efforts of the U.S. Marshals Service, the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office and the New Brunswick Police Department.

Thompson is currently detained at the DeKalb County Jail in Georgia while awaiting extradition to New Jersey, as of press time.

An investigation by Detective Kenneth Abode of the New Brunswick Police Department and Detective David Abromaitis of the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office determined that Thompson allegedly fatally shot Larenz Ogarro, 23, of New Brunswick, on Oct. 26 in New Brunswick. This incident occurred shortly after a related aggravated assault by Eric “E-Z” Inman who was charged on Oct. 27, officials claim.

The investigation is active and continuing. Anyone with information should call Abode at 732-745-5217 or Abromaitis at 732-745- 4436.
