Shooting near Jersey City playground


Dozens of police officers and emergency workers are at Montgomery and Florence streets in Jersey City where a shooting has left a pile of blood-soaked snow just about 10 feet from a playground, Jersey Journal reporter Michaelangelo Conte reports from the scene.

It is unknown right now if more than one person was shot and how severe the injuries were.

Two ambulances left the scene about 10 minutes ago and police have taped off the area as they take photographs and investigate.

An officer just called for a biohazard cleanup of the snow so no children play in it.

The playground serves kids in the various buildings of the Montgomery Gardens public housing complex.
