WOODBRIDGE TOWNSHIP, New Jersey – Two police officers were shot overnight at a hotel in Woodbridge Township, New Jersey, according to a high-ranking law enforcement source.
The shooting happened early Thursday morning.

Two officers — one from New Jersey and one from the NYPD — were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

The New Jersey attorney general’s office is now investigating, as it does whenever an officer is involved in a shooting.
