According to the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office, the murder of Nymere Tinsley, 25, of Brick Township, which took place on August 27, 2022, in Toms River Township, was committed by Eric Manzanares, 23, of Asbury Park, who was at large at the time. On April 7, 2023, Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer announced that Manzanares had been captured by authorities in Prince William County, Virginia. In anticipation of his extradition to New Jersey, Manzanares is currently detained at the Prince William-Manassas Regional Adult Detention Center in Manassas, Virginia.
Officers from the Toms River Township Police Department responded to the Top Tier Hookah Lounge at 1769 Hooper Avenue on August 27, 2022, at around 1:20 a.m., in response to a report of gunshots fired.
Officers on the scene discovered three individuals who had been shot. Nymere Tinsley was hit in the lower abdomen by a gunshot and was declared deceased immediately. In order to treat their wounds, two additional victims were taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center.
After receiving medical attention and being released, Anthony Miller, 29, of Neptune Township, who had been shot in the stomach, and Jamal Bland, 24, of Asbury Park, who had been shot in the elbow, had both sustained gunshot wounds.
A thorough and extensive investigation by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crime Unit, Toms River Township Police Department Detective Bureau, and Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigation Unit, determined that Manzanares was responsible for the shooting of all three victims.
On August 27, 2022, Manzanares was charged with Murder, Attempted Murder, Aggravated Assault, Possession of a Weapon for an Unlawful Purpose, and Unlawful Possession of a Weapon. A warrant for Manzanares’ arrest was issued on that date, and his name was entered in the National Crime Information Center database.
