Police in Newark are on the search for several suspects who are wanted for a shots fired incident that closed the ramp to a highway in the city during the overnight hours.
According to preliminary reports, multiple rounds of gunfire erupted in the 100 block of 1st Street at approximately 12:20 a.m. sending police to the scene where officers who canvassed the scene found shell casings and other evidence that proved a shooting occurred in the vicinity of I-280 and 1st Street.
Police say, several males -possibly juveniles- were observed running from the scene and entered 195 1st Street immediately after the shooting.
Officers on the scene closed the ramp to the highway which led to massive delays for the investigation.
There were no injuries reported.
