Newark FBI Seeks Man Wanted in Death of 2-Year-Old Daughter

Arthur E. Morgan III is wanted for his alleged involvement in the death of his 2-year-old daughter. On November 22, 2011, the body of a 2-year-old child, still strapped in her car seat, was found partially submerged in a stream in Shark River Park in Monmouth County, New Jersey.

Morgan was supposed to return the child to her mother on November 21 following a custody visit. When Morgan failed to return the child, he was charged in the Ocean County Superior Court with endangering the welfare of a child and interference with child custody, and a state warrant was issued for his arrest. Once the child’s body was discovered, Morgan was charged with homicide.

Morgan has a tattoo on his left hand and tattoos on both arms.
