The New Jersey State Police said it’s investigating a shooting at a massive house party in Cumberland County late on May 22 that left two people dead and another 12 injured, including one in critical condition.

The state police, which provided scant details of the incident in a statement early on May 23, said that troopers responded to a residence on E. Commerce St. in Fairfield Township after a “report of a shooting with multiple victims.” Fairfield Township is located in the southern part of New Jersey, approximately 50 miles south of Philadelphia.
