LEHIGH COUNTY, PA — A New Jersey man has been arrested after fatally shooting another man from his car in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, authorities said. The incident occurred on Oct. 12 at around 7:39 p.m. in Allentown, Lehigh County. Justin Nevius, 25, of Phillipsburg is seen in video surveillance traveling in a Nissan Altima south on 7th Street around that time, police said. The circumstances leading up to the shooting remain unclear. The footage shows the Altima pull up next to a Dodge Caravan, stop, and fire several shots from the driver's seat into the other car, according to authorities. The shots blew out the windows of the Caravan and left the driver and sole occupant, Kippy Reco Henry, 43, fatally injured. Two individuals then got out of Altima and ran away. The Altima then turned south on 7th and then left heading east on Gordon street. Henry was taken to Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest where he later died. Police said a witness identified Nevius as the shooter. Phillipsburg Police arrested him on Tuesday night. Nevius is a convicted felon, and therefore is not permitted to possess a firearm. He faces firearms charges as well as first degree criminal homicide.
