Two men and three women were shot and one critically wounded at a house party.

South Orange police said just after midnight the gunshots rang out at a two family home on South Clinton Street, just off South Orange Avenue in East Orange.

They said someone couldn’t get into the party, may have gotten angry, left and came back with a gun, opening fire on the victims.

A neighbor told CBS 2HD the apartment was rented by three recent graduates of Seton Hall, which is just blocks away, and that they were known to party.

CBS 2HD’s Derricke Dennis talked with the lady who lives upstairs. She said they asked her for permission to have the party, as was their wont.

It wasn’t clear if the residents of the apartment were among those who were shot, but at least one was in critical condition Saturday morning.

We will post more as the story develops. Our prayers are with the victims and their families!
