Authorities say they are looking for two men who brought a knife and gun to a family reunion in Readington.

A fight broke out at a home Saturday on Emmons Road, prosecutors say. They say Richard and Ryan Gonzalez, both of Staten Island, were called to the home after an earlier fight.

According to authorities, witnesses said Richard and Ryan then assaulted party guests before pulling out a knife and gun. The pair drove off in a gray Honda Accord with New York plates. The suspects still have not been caught.

Prosecutors say victims of the assault received medical treatment at the scene but refused to go to the hospital.

Richard was charged with one count of second-degree aggravated assault and one count of third-degree terroristic threats. Ryan was charged with one count of second-degree aggravated assault, one count of third-degree terroristic threats, two counts of third-degree aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
