Officers were called to reports of gunshots shortly before 1 a.m. The victim, who had been shot in the stomach, was transported to Cooper Hospital Center where he is listed in critical but stable condition, according to Paulsboro Police Chief Vernon Marino.

Bystanders and nearby residents reported they didn't see anything.

The altercation was the second shooting in the borough in two days. Early Saturday morning a man was shot in the arm during a fight on Broad Street. Police do not believe the incidents are related.
