MAPLEWOOD MAN MURDERED IN HIS HOME

A Broadview Avenue man was found murdered in his home early this morning, according to the Essex County Prosecutor's Office, which issued a press release stating he was assaulted.

Investigators identified the victim as Wesley Reason, 53, and stated he was assaulted in his home at 2:30 a.m. He was pronounced dead at 3:08 a.m. from "blunt force trauma."  

No arrests have been made and no other information was released.

This marks the fourth murder in Maplewood this year after a triple homicide on Van Ness Court in January, which resulted in the arrest of three people.
