The incident took place on Monday night, August 3 at around 11:15 P.M. in a parking lot after the concert ended, said Sgt. First Class Gregory Williams, a State Police spokesman.

The victims were flown to Jersey Shore Hospital by helicopter. According to a tweet posted by the New Jersey State Police, both of them were in critical condition. Hip-hop stars Cole and Sean were not injured in the shooting.
