(Headline USA) Police say one person was shot and killed and six others were injured in what they call a mass shooting at a Chick-fil-A in Union, New Jersey.
Investigators do not believe the attack at about 9 p.m. Saturday was random, according to a press release issued Sunday from the Union County Prosecutor’s Office. No arrests have been made, but the office said “there is no immediate ongoing threat to the general public.”
The injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, the release said.
A ride share driver told WABC that he heard more than seven shots from close range as he approached the restaurant.

She urged people with information to contact authorities investigating the shooting.
An email sent to Chick-fil-A’s corporate offices was not immediately returned.
The Homicide Task Force at the county prosecutor’s office is investigating.
