TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - Authorities in New Jersey say a triple shooting killed one man and wounded two others over the weekend.
The Mercer County prosecutor’s office says a gathering of 30 to 40 people in front of a Trenton home was fired upon by one or more suspects at about 11:40 p.m. Saturday.
Prosecutors say 38-year-old Robert Smith was struck in the head and died at a hospital.
Authorities said a 19-year-old Hamilton man was hit in the buttocks and a 44-year-old Trenton man was struck in the back.
Prosecutors said more than a dozen shell casings were found and two vehicles were also struck.
