An early morning shooting just blocks from student housing at Rutgers University left two people affiliated with the New Jersey school injured on Friday.
The shooting occurred just after 2 a.m. at the intersection of Easton Avenue and Hamilton Street in New Brunswick following an apparent altercation, Rutgers police announced.
Police found a male victim “affiliated with Rutgers University” with gunshot wounds and took him to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, RLS Media reports.
Eyewitnesses claim the unidentified victim got into a verbal altercation with a suspect when the suspect approached the victim in his car.
The victim allegedly provoked the suspect to shoot, at which point the unidentified gunman fired multiple times and fled, according to RLS Media.
A woman who lived nearby, who police say is also “affiliated” with the university, was struck by a stray bullet.
