"The NJSP is investigating a fatal shooting that killed a man
and a woman and injured 12 others at a residential party in
Cumberland County last night," the New Jersey State Police said
in a news release.
Police said a man, 30, and a woman, 25, were killed. The injured
were sent to hospitals, and one of the wounded was in critical
condition, police said.
The shooting occurred at a home near Bridgeton, New Jersey, just
before midnight on Saturday, police said. More than 100 people
were attending the birthday party, which was a 1990s-themed
event, according to ABC News.
No arrests had been made as of Sunday morning, and the motive
for the incident remained under investigation, according to
police.
Aerial video from WPVI television showed evidence of the chaos
that erupted after the shooting, with tents and chairs toppled,
and debris strewn across the property.
