One dead and several injured in mass shooting at New Jersey Chick-fil-A

Sunday, 12 April 2026 · 1 min read

At least six people were shot, one fatally, at a Chick-fil-A restaurant on Route 22 in Union Township, New Jersey (a suburban community roughly 17 miles west of New York City), on Saturday evening. Witnesses described chaotic scenes as dozens of patrons fled, and a father waiting outside the restaurant said his son, an employee, told him masked individuals had entered before opening fire. The shooting has been recorded as the 100th mass shooting in the United States so far this year by the Gun Violence Archive, which defines mass shootings as incidents in which four or more people are wounded or killed. Authorities, including the local county prosecutor's office, are investigating; no suspect, motive, or arrests had been announced as of Sunday. New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill confirmed she had been briefed and said she was monitoring the situation closely.
