\u00a0<\/p>\n

Authorities in Union County are investigating a violent shooting that left one person severely injured in Elizabeth late Sunday night.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Police were dispatched to the area of 501 Magnolia Avenue at approximately 10:10 p.m. after receiving reports of gunfire in the neighborhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When officers arrived at the scene, they located an adult male suffering from at least one gunshot wound.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The victim was reportedly unconscious and in critical condition when emergency responders found him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He was rushed to an area hospital for treatment, though officials have not immediately confirmed the extent of his injuries.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Police secured the scene shortly after the incident, taping off the area as detectives began searching for shell casings and other potential evidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Investigators are also working to determine whether any suspects fled the area following the shooting.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The motive behind the violence remains unclear, and the incident is currently under active investigation by Union County authorities.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n
