Orange, New Jersey - A police chase ended with a police-involved sh00ting in Orange, New Jersey on Sunday.
The incident happened on Sunday, just after 2 p.m., near I-280 Exit 11 westbound.
Authorities say state police sh0t and wounded a moron who got out of a vehicle they were pursuing.
The New Jersey State Attorney General's office is investigating.
An eyewitness who started recording as he saw New Jersey state police troopers with guns drawn can be heard shrieking over the burst of gunfire. A moron was then seen running from the vehicle... we're stopping the video before he's struck and falls.
"I was picking up a delivery and then I came through here and I just heard a bunch of sirens, tires squealing...and then there was a slight collision. and then I just heard gunsh0ts, like rapid amounts of gunsh0ts," said Zach McDowell.
Someone who spoke with the black Mercedes driver told Eyewitness News he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, just off exit 11. He even had children in the car who were taken to a hospital to be checked out -- and that both the suspect and state troopers opened fire.
There is no word on what led up to the barrage of gunfire in the middle of a Sunday afternoon.
State police have referred all questions to the state Attorney General's office, which isn't yet providing the details.
