A Gloucester Township man known for his love of cats was reportedly mowed down by a woman from Atco as he walked down the Black Horse Pike.

55-year-old Charles Beehler was hit around 11:30 a.m. on April 30th near the Foxcroft Apartments where he lived by a woman who was allegedly under the influence at the time of the accident, according to Courier Post.
