A short time later, a 44-year-old Paterson man arrived at St. Joseph’s University Medical Center via private vehicle seeking treatment for a gunshot wound, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes and Acting Paterson Police Chief Bert Ribeiro said in a joint release.

The chief and prosecutor didn’t say whether any suspects had been arrested or identified, nor whether the incidents might be related.
All of the victims were expected to survive their injuries, they said.
