HIGHLAND PARK, N.J. - A New Jersey mother helped her adult son flee to Pennsylvania after he shot a man several times during a robbery last month, authorities said.
Felicia Terrell, 53, of Highland Park, has been charged with three counts of hindering apprehension, according to New Jersey state police. It wasn’t known Friday if she’s retained an attorney.
Terrrell’s 21-year-old son, James Ward, was arrested last week at a hotel Wilkes-Barre. He’s facing counts of attempted murder, burglary and conspiracy that stem from a May 17 robbery in New Brunswick.
Ward, who lives in Highland Park, is being held in the Luzerne County jail while authorities work to extradite him back to New Jersey. It wasn’t known Friday if he’s retained an attorney.
Authorities said Terrell helped Ward flee to the hotel where he was captured June 10, but did not disclose further details.
