A violent incident erupted inside a Chick-fil-A restaurant in New Jersey on Saturday night, resulting in several people being injured. Reports indicate that a group of men stormed into the establishment, went behind the food counter, and began shooting.
The chaos unfolded shortly before 9 p.m. at the Route 22 location in Union. The fast-food outlet has since been locked down, with some employees reportedly remaining inside as Union County police conduct their investigation, according to WABC and CBS New York.
A witness, whose girlfriend works at the restaurant, shared with CBS that a group of masked men forced their way behind the counter and opened fire, discharging multiple shots.

A family member of one of the employees noted that an altercation ensued, resulting in several staff members being injured by the gunfire.
A Lyft driver recounted to WABC, “I heard the shots.”
“After finishing a trip, I went to Chick-fil-A to buy two burgers — as I arrived, I saw the police and heard the shots very close,” he added.
One worker’s father called the scene a “warzone.”
It’s unclear how many people were injured or whether there are any casualties.

A large police presence remains at the scene, with cops canvassing the parking lot and sealing off the area.
Authorities have not provided any details about the shooting.
The Union County Prosecutor’s Office is reportedly handing the investigation.
The prosecutor’s office and Chick-fil-A did not immediatley respond to The Post’s request for comment.
The investigation is ongoing.
