At least two people were injured in a shooting in the stands of a high school football game in Pleasantville, New Jersey on Friday, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
In a game between Pleasantville and Camden, several shots could be heard ringing out in the bleachers during a punt play in the game’s third quarter. No players or referees were hurt, according to one of the teams’ coaches.
Per The Press of Atlantic City, no suspects are in custody, with one official reportedly saying the gunman ran out of the stands, across the field and into the parking lot.
The two victims, an unidentified male and female, reportedly exited the scene in separate ambulances, with the male receiving attention from emergency medical personnel on the field. One of the victims was 10 to 14 years old, according to Jersey Sports Zone’s Mike Frankel.
