N.J. Man Allegedly Shot Neighbors in Attempted Double Murder, Then Died By Suicide

John Adamo, 54, allegedly shot Tom Kwatkoski and his wife, Jill Kwatkoski, on Monday, March 10

A man allegedly shot at his next-door neighbors and then fatally shot himself on Monday, March 10, in Berkeley Township, N.J., the Berkeley Township Police Department (BTPD) said in a Tuesday, March 11 news release.

John Adamo, 54, allegedly shot Tom Kwatkoski outside of his home. Adamo then allegedly turned his gun on Tom's wife Jill while she was inside. The BTPD responded to a call around 4:45 p.m. that there were two gunshot victims at the residence. Upon arrival, they found the married couple both suffering from gunshot wounds. They were airlifted to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, N.J., where they are in critical but stable condition.

Before Adamo was found dead inside his own home, the local SWAT teams surrounded the building “in an attempt to have him surrender.” After two and a half hours, the SWAT team forced entry inside, where they found him deceased from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The SWAT team also discovered a pressure cooker inside the home, and then neighbors evacuated for safety concerns that it was an explosive. The New Jersey State Police Bomb Squad confirmed it was not.

A neighbor told The New York Post that the Kwatkoski’s placed cameras that were facing Adamo’s house, as well as a “No Trespassing” sign.

“I don’t know what was going on with them, but it was back and forth and going on for years,” the neighbor added.

"I can't understand how it could have possibly gotten to this, so it's sad, very sad," neighbor Deborah Nowakoski told CBS New York.

"They've been in a longtime dispute. I don't know what brought it to that point. They have the cameras aimed at each other's houses, but in my book they were all nice," neighbor Joe Spicciatie said, per CBS New York.

"We're all friends in the neighborhood and, you know, we have parties together," Louie Pascalli told the outlet. "[There was] always friction, but never anything serious like this."

Angela Bassett didn't shed any tears when she dropped her kids off at college. The 66-year-old actress has revealed that she felt "lots of joy" when she dropped her 19-year-old twins, Bronwyn and Slater, off at their new school. The award-winning star - who has been married to actor Courtney B. Vance since 1997 - told the 'Today' show: "You know what, no tears. Just lots of joy. "You think you're going to cry, and because you think you are going to do that, it doesn't happen. I remember when I went to college and how wonderful it was, so, of course, I wanted that for them too, so no cries, no guilt." Angela previously insisted that she will support her kids if they follow her into the movie business. The Hollywood star revealed that she will always support her children - irrespective of what they do in their careers. Speaking about her kids' interests, Angela explained to PEOPLE: "They want to follow the success, but whether it be acting, I don't get any clues to that right now. It's a little music, a little sports. But whatever they want to do, I support them." Angela previously won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever', and the movie star revealed that she celebrated her success with her kids. The acclaimed actress - who has won a host of awards during her career, including a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globe Awards - said: "I went home and hugged my kids. They were really excited for mom to bring home a statue."

Kevin Spacey tells Guy Pearce to 'grow up'
Kevin Spacey has told Guy Pearce to "grow up" after the actor claimed he was "targeted" by his former co-star. The 65-year-old actor has taken to social media to hit back at Guy's recent claims, insisting that the 57-year-old star is "not a victim". In a video posted on X, Kevin - who starred alongside Guy in the 1997 movie 'L.A. Confidential' - said: "Guy Pearce, I've now read the comments that you made about me and while I would have preferred not to have to play this out in the media, you obviously have your own reasons for wanting to do exactly that. "But, we worked together a long time ago, you know? If I did something then that upset you, you could've reached out to me. We could've had that conversation. But instead, you've decided to speak to the press, who are now coming after me because they would like to know what my response is to the things that you've said. "You really want to know what my response is? Grow up." Kevin - whose career previously went into freefall after he was accused of sexual misconduct by a number of men - actually recalled spending time with Guy after they filmed 'L.A. Confidential'. He continued: "Did you also, by the way, tell the press that a year after we shot 'L.A. Confidential', you flew to Georgia while I was shooting 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' just to spend time with me?" Kevin also questioned why his former co-star took so long to voice his concerns. The actor - who was acquitted by a jury of sexual assault charges in 2023 - explained: "Here you are now on a mission some 28 years later, after I've been through hell and back, to do what? "I've got nothing to hide. But Guy, you need to grow up. You are not a victim." By contrast, Guy recently claimed that he was "targeted" by his former co-star. The actor told the 'Awards Chatter' podcast: "I was sort of scared of Kevin because he’s quite an aggressive man. "He’s extremely charming and brilliant at what he does - really impressive, etc. He holds a room remarkably. But I was young and susceptible, and he targeted me, no question."

A new Desjardins report says there are five sectors of the Canadian economy that are most vulnerable to incoming U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs, with exemptions expected for the energy and automotive sectors. "With Trump set to take office on Jan. 20, Canadian companies are rightly highly concerned. Some should be more worried than others," Desjardins principal economist Florence Jean-Jacobs wrote in a report released on Friday.

Justin Theroux and Nicole Brydon Bloom detail lively wedding weekend celebrations
Justin Theroux and Nicole Brydon Bloom's wedding celebrations featured stilt walkers, a bonfire on the beach and "mermaid" swimming. The couple - who got engaged ast summer after two years of dating - tied the knot over the weekend at the Hotel Esencia in Xpu Há, Mexico, where they had previously enjoyed a weekend away, and wanted their guests to enjoy a "taste of [their] dream weekend in the Mayan Riviera paradise". The guests spent Thursday (13.03.25) night on the beach with a bonfire, before the couple held their rehearsal dinner the following evening. Those celebratios began with cocktails on the roof terrace before toasts from friends and family by the pool. Nicole told Vogue magazine: “Many tears were shed and we were overwhelmed with gratitude for the people who have made such a huge impact on our lives, both as individuals and as a couple." They then enjoyed more drinks, using local vendors and entertainers, and "got the party started". The 30-year-old actress noted: “Our band for the night, The Cubanismos, really got the party started. As did the stilt walkers!” The wedding ceremony took place at 5pm on Saturday (15.03.25), but the weather meant a slight change of plans with the venue. Nicole - who wore a custom gown by her friend Victoria Beckham - explained: “We had initially wanted to get married down by the water, but when we woke up on Saturday morning, the wind was incredibly strong and sand was whipping around. We pulled the ceremony back into a tucked away cove. The ocean was still visible but we were protected under a canopy of palm trees.” The 'Paradise' star's sister sang 'Moon River' as she walked down the aisle. Nicole said: “It was so moving to hear her beautiful voice wafting over the soft waves as my step-father Dan McNulty and I made our way through all our family and friends toward Justin at the end of the aisle." The pair have opted to keep the contents of their wedding vows private. Justin said: “All I’ll say is, it was wonderful. Ceremonies with vows are about the words contained within them. And they are better left un-described here. That being said, the officiant said some wonderful things, and my wife was just… well, incredibly touching. I was very moved.” Nicole added: "I kept saying I felt so at peace and so loved all weekend. "Our officiant and my brother-in-law, Patrick McQuade, had us take a moment at the top of our ceremony to face our guests and really soak in the moment. I was overwhelmed with gratitude, love, and joy. "To see so many faces smiling back at me from so many different walks of life and generations felt incredibly grounding and magical. Looking into Justin’s kind, hazel eyes during the ceremony made me feel very safe and loved.” After saying I do, the 53-year-old actor and his new wife took 10 minutes to themselves before kicking off their celebrations. Nicole said: “It was the greatest little reset before rejoining our favorite people for cocktail hour on the lawn." Eliot Sumner opened the reception with two songs before speeches came from Nicole's stepfather and her two sisters, who were joint maids of honour. Nicole said: “All three speeches moved me to tears. Justin’s best men were fantastic and had all our guests belly laughing by the end of their toasts.” A mariachi band played while the couple headed to the floor for their first dance to 'I've Told Every Little Star' by Linda Scott. Justin said: “A first dance and an homage to David Lynch." Nicole added: "We danced for three hours straight with all our guests beneath a canopy of disco balls. My 93-year-old grandma, Laura Bloom, was the life of the party.” The guests who celebrated until the end found themselves inside a little speakeasy within the hotel. Nicole said: “It was rowdy with great music—and Patrick, our officiant, just kept yelling ‘This is the best night of my life!’ "A few mermaids ended up swimming in the pool above. It was the perfect celebratory way to end a fabulous weekend!”
