Around 12:20 p.m. Saturday, Franklin Township police responded to a report of an unconscious woman with apparent physical trauma at home on Upper Kingtown Road.

Officers found two people, 33-year-old Lauren Semanchik, of Pittstown, and 29-year-old Tyler Webb, 29, of Forked River, with gunshot wounds.

Semachik, 33, of Pittstown, was a vet at Long Valley Animal Hospital. Their post of Facebook says, "Not only was Lauren a phenomenal veterinarian, she was one of the kindest souls you could ever encounter."

Webb, 29, of Forked River, was a volunteer firefighter. Pinewald Pioneer Fire Company posted on Facebook announcing Webb's death.

Prosecutors believe the shooting was a targeted act but did not provide any further details. They say there is no danger to the public.

News 12 reached out to state police and the attorney general's office to confirm reports of the involvement.

In a statement, the office of the attorney general says:

"We are devasted by the tragedies that occurred this weekend. We will await the full results of the Hunterdon County Prosecutor’s Office’s investigation before commenting further. But we extend our sincerest sympathy to the victims’ families and the loved ones, and pray for their healing as they endure an unimaginable pain."
