Investigators are looking into a shots-fired incident that erupted late Sunday night in a section of Newark where authorities were already investigating a homicide that occurred on Friday.
Gunfire erupted in the vicinity of 787 Clinton Avenue around 11:10 p.m., sending police to the scene to investigate.
Upon arrival, units found evidence that a shooting occurred, but a search of the scene indicated no victims, according to police.
