CAMDEN, N.J. (WPVI) -- Three people were shot at a backyard barbecue on Tuesday night in Camden, New Jersey.

One of the victims is in critical condition.

Police say a gunman opened fire around 11 p.m. on the 1300 block of Sheridan Street.

Officers are now hunting for that gunman and accomplice.

Thomson adds that there were no complaints about the party before the shooting
