Deadly Jersey City Shooting Leaves 2 Suspects Dead

An early morning shootout on Thursday between police and gunmen in Jersey City, New Jersey ended with two suspects dead and five officers wounded. Besides those five, three others were wounded, though not by gunfire, in the shooting.

The primary suspect was reported to be using an shotgun. Two of the officers were in critical condition and had undergone surgery but were expected to survive. One officer was shot in the face and nearly died, while another suffered gunshot wounds to the neck and chest. The others' injuries weren't life-threatening, so it looks like there will be no police fatalities in the Jersey City shooting.
