NBC New York shared photos of a red sedan that appeared to have multiple assault rifles attached to it parked in a wooded area of Byram Township. Citing a senior law enforcement officer, NBC4 says someone got out of the vehicle and police opened fire.
The person was hospitalized with a gunshot wound to the neck, however, it was not immediately clear whether or not the gunshot wound was self-inflicted.
New Jersey State PBA President Peter Andreyev said the officers involved in the shooting were being evaluated at an area hospital.
A spokesperson for the Attorney General's Office tells Daily Voice that the Sussex County Prosecutor was leading the investigation.
