3 dead in shooting at New Jersey Pathmark


OLD BRIDGE, N.J.  – Three people are dead, including the gunman, in a shooting inside a supermarket in Old Bridge, CBS 2 reported.

Police said they got a 911 call around 4:30 a.m. about shots fired inside a Pathmark supermarket on Route 9.

According to store employees, a gunman walked in with a shotgun and started shooting, 1010 WINS’ Steve Sandberg reported.

Two employees were shot and killed before the suspect turned the gun on himself, witnesses said.

Police have sealed off the entire area. The case has been handed over to the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office.

Employees said there were about a dozen workers inside the store when the shooting happened.

They said the store opens early to employees on Fridays so workers can do price changes, Sandberg reported.

The store was scheduled to open at 6 a.m.

The nearby New Jersey TRANSIT park-and-ride station has been closed due to police activity.
