Governor: Officers shot in Jersey City standoff

JERSEY CITY, N.J. — New Jersey’s governor says police officers have been shot in the Jersey City standoff.Sporadic, heavy gunfire rang out Tuesday over the course of at least an hour in a Jersey City neighborhood.SWAT teams and federal agents responded to the scene, and police blocked off the major thoroughfare where the shooting occurred. The area has a Catholic school, some stories, a kosher supermarket and a hair stylist. Phones rang unanswered at several businesses.

Loud volleys of gunfire could be heard at regular intervals but subsided around 2 p.m. in the city, which is just across the Hudson River from Manhattan. Dozens of bystanders pressed against the police barrier to film the action on cellphones, some whooping when gunfire bursts filled the air.

This could have all been avoided if only there were good guys with guns present.

More Saudis for Trump to protect.

Hey MoscowMitch... Another shooting!

So not in Canada, right?

Could someone please tell CNN so they’ll quit talking impeachment. This is an active shooter, yet again.

Active gunshots heard and people standing around filming? Call me what you want but I'm out, not gonna catch a stray bullet for a cool viral video.

They should send Trump and Barr right into the middle of it to take care of the issue....

I’m betting it’s a criminal, and not a law abiding citizen... 🤔🤔🤔

Normal day

Another typical violent republican

Sigh. Every week, there's a shooting here in the US.

just another day in america

Let’s hope the police do not start using humans as shields or firing their weapons

I hope there isn't an UPS driver involved.

Hope there's no UPS drivers around.

I see death all around me, yet it never comes for me? Cmon I wanna be at peace too :(

What neighborhood? They're pretty defined in JC.
