Three people were injured during a shooting on Ocean Avenue, officials said.

The shooting occurred near Wade Street on Thursday at about 10:20 p.m., city spokeswoman Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione said.

One man suffered a graze wound, a second man was shot in the lower right leg, and a woman was shot in the buttocks, she said. None of the injuries were considered life-threatening.

Then at about 12:30 a.m. on Saturday, police responded to a disorderly crowd near Brinkerhoff and Monticello avenues. The officers heard two gunshots and found a 25-year-old with wounds to his hand and abdomen, officials said.

The Jersey Journal requested details about the shootings multiple times before the information was released by city officials.
