One person has been killed and multiple people injured during a mass shooting at a New Jersey Chick-fil-A.
The horror unfolded at the restaurant in Union Township on Saturday night, sending terrified patrons scrambling and the business into lockdown.
At least six people were shot after gunfire erupted at around 8.40pm inside the crowded establishment, according to RLS Media.
A local living a block away told the Daily Mail that they could hear 'a ruckus' as well as sirens blaring hours after the shooting ended.
The father of a Chick-fil-A worker said his son told him multiple armed suspects in masks burst into the fast food chain.
The anonymous father described the busy eatery as a 'warzone' and said several of his son's co-workers had been injured.
Another man whose girlfriend works at the restaurant told CBS that the group of suspects barged in and went directly behind the counter, firing multiple shots.
A Lyft driver told ABC that he was finishing a drop-off near the Chick-fil-A when he heard more than seven shots fired.
'I finished my trip over there, in the return zone. I heard the shots. When I finished the trip, I go to Chick-fil-A to buy two burgers - I see the police, I heard the shots very close,' he said.
The Chick-fil-A is located at 2139 US 22 in Union, New Jersey. The town is located just over 15 miles outside of New York City.

Oh, I liked Manhattan also. I worked there for a couple of years off and on in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Went there many times for concerts, shows, museums etc. But it’s not the same any more you’re right about that.
I remember the riots during the 60’s in Newark. Not living very far away in Edison/Metuchen area. The National Guard had to be called in. A friend of my sister had to spend a couple nights with us while her street was like a war zone.
I’ve heard rumors to that effect, so horific that I don’t want to see it for myself. And now Mamdani wants to rid Central Park South of the hansom cabs. It’s like being present at the fall of Troy.
