Officers arriving to a reported shooting in the 800 block of Greenwood Avenue found two men dead of gunshot wounds.

TRENTON -- Two men were killed and one is in critical condition following a shooting on Greenwood Avenue early Sunday, police said.

Trenton police officers arriving to a reported shooting in the 800 block of Greenwood Avenue at about 3:15 a.m. found two men with gunshot wounds, Trenton police spokesman Lt. Stephen Varn said.

Both men were pronounced dead at the scene, Varn said.

A short time later, officers learned that a third man was at St. Francis Medical Center, just a few block away, also with bullet wounds.

He was transported to Capital Health Regional Medical Center in Trenton and underwent emergency surgery, Varn said.

Trenton police and the Mercer County Homicide Task Force are investigating. No arrests or other information was immediately made public.

The killings come two days after a 20-year-old woman was shot dead in her apartment, early Friday on Spring Street.
