The news that a young Camden man died after being pursued by police on the evening of Feb. 6, 2021 hit Tanisha Randall hard.
The decedent had tried to elude Camden police after they pulled him over for reckless driving at about 7:30 p.m. He then crashed his car, ran up an embankment and onto Route I-676, where he was struck and killed by a motorist.
