An investigation is underway into a shooting that left a man dead early this morning in Newark.
Multiple rounds of gunfire rang out near the Tremont Lounge shortly before 3 a.m. sending police units from Newark and East Orange to the scene where they searched the area for victims as a large crowd descended on several blocks.
Authorities found a male victim around the age of 25-years-old struck by gunfire in the 100 block of Halsted Street a short time later.
The man was rushed to University Hospital where he later died from his injuries.
A crime scene was set up in the area and a check of area hospitals for other victims was negative.
