Firefighters spent about 2 1/2 hours at the canal on North Montgomery Street but did not find any weapons.

TRENTON -- Trenton firefighters searched the Delaware & Raritan Canal for a gun Tuesday morning for police detectives who are investigating a recent shooting, officials said.

The firefighters, from Rescue Co. 1, spent about 2 1/2 hours at the canal on North Montgomery Street near Holland Avenue, but did not find any weapons, officials said.

Police spokesman Lt. Stephen Varn declined to say for which investigation detectives needed the canal searched.

He would only say it was a recent shooting, and the robbery/assault unit under the direction of Sgt. Chris Kolodziej is investigating.

Trenton police and the joint Shooting Response Team have investigated seven nonfatal shootings that wounded 8 people this month.
