An arrest has been made in the case of murdered New Jersey councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour, who was gunned down outside her home in early February, according to reports.

The Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office, which has led the investigation, has been notoriously tight-lipped about its progress, but it will hold a 4 p.m. press conference to update the public, ABC7 reported Tuesday.

The 30-year-old Republican was killed Feb. 1 after an unknown gunman pumped several rounds into her SUV — while Dwumfour’s 12-year-old daughter sat inside their Sayreville home.

Witnesses said they saw a man dressed in black running from the scene, but investigators have said little about whether they’d identified a suspect or found a motive for the killing.

Dwumfour’s family has said they didn’t know why anyone would target the newly married Newark native, who was also a pastor. Friends and family described her as a well-liked woman who was deeply religious.***

Police “tracked the phone and his rented vehicle from Virginia to New Jersey and back around the time of the slaying.”

The suspect has a long criminal record including credit card felony and forgery.

The family’s lawyer is wondering how the suspect would’ve known Eunice’s schedule. Was someone else feeding him information about when she was coming and going?
