Anthony, 45, a well-liked South Jersey veterinarian, was found with stab wounds to his body, neck, and head on the front lawn of his Cherry Hill home on Dec. 10, authorities said, and pronounced dead at the scene.

On a day meant to honor the nation’s war dead, shooters attacked a gathering Monday night in a barrage of bullets that city officials said evoked a “wartime” assault. “This was wartime ammunition that was just opened on Philadelphians and those here in our city,” Mayor Cherelle L. Parker said of the late-night Memorial Day shooting spree in Fairmount Park that left two dead and nine wounded. The victims ranged in age from 15 to 28, and the wounded were reported in stable condition Tuesday.
