Camden City, NJ (CNBNews)– A Camden City man has been arrested and charged for fatally beating a woman with a baseball bat, reported Camden County Prosecutor Grace C. MacAulay and Camden County Police Chief Gabriel Rodriguez.
Enoch Rembert, 28, is charged with 1st-degree Murder in the death of 51-year-old Lisa Mellet of Camden. He is also charged with 3rd-degree Possession of a Weapon for an Unlawful Purpose.
On Wednesday, March 25, 2026, at approximately 11:29 p.m., emergency medical service personnel were dispatched to the area of 5th Street and Bailey Street in reference to an unconscious woman in the roadway. The woman – later identified as Mellet – was transported to Cooper University Hospital, where she was pronounced deceased at approximately 12:24 a.m. on Thursday, March 26, 2026. Later that day, the Gloucester-Camden-Salem County Medical Examiner determined the cause of death to be blunt abdominal trauma and the manner of death to be homicide.
During the investigation, detectives located surveillance video footage showing a suspect – later identified as Rembert – walking to the area of 5th Street and Erie Street and repeatedly striking the victim multiple times with a baseball bat. After the assault, the victim walked to the area of 5th Street and Bailey Street and ultimately collapsed. Detectives also learned the suspect and victim were previously acquainted from the neighborhood.
Enoch was taken into custody in Camden and remanded to the Camden County Correctional Facility.

All individuals charged with crimes are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
A familiar pattern is taking shape in neighborhood nightlife. A regular walks into a bar to catch a match, notices a few screens showing odds movement and live sports coverage, then ends up in a conversation with people who came for the same reason but from very different circles. That moment matters. It shows how local bars and lounges are becoming social filters for digital play. They are turning individual mobile habits into group rituals, and they are doing it through atmosphere, timing, and shared attention.
For operators, venue owners, and platform watchers, the shift is worth studying closely. Local iGaming nights are not simply themed events built around betting culture. They are a modern update of the old bar invitation – meet here, watch together, talk through the action, stay for the social energy.
