Multiple shots were fired tonight on the West Side, leaving on man slightly injured.

According to radio reports, three men in black clothing engaged in a shootout in the vicinity of Van Wagenen Avenue and Pavonia Avenue at approximately 10:08 tonight.

A security guard was said to have suffered from a “graze wound” during the shooting and was taken to Jersey City Medical Center for treatment.

Further details were not available.

The extent of crime generally, and shootings in particular, in Jersey City is difficult to assess. Without explanation, the Fulop administration stopped publishing monthly CompStat crime data in June of 2019.

New York City and Newark residents have access to weekly crime data, including shootings, from weekly CompStat reports posted on their respective websites.
