JERSEY CITY -- A 23-year-old man was shot in the area of Grant Avenue and Kennedy Boulevard on Saturday in connection to a domestic dispute, authorities said.

Police respond to the scene just before 11 p.m., where the victim had suffered injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening, city spokeswoman Ashley Manz said.

"It appears the shots were fired in relation to an ongoing domestic dispute," she said.

The victim was transported to a local hospital and was in stable condition as of Sunday. The investigation, meanwhile, remains ongoing, Manz said.

Less than five hours later, police responded to the area of 451 Communipaw Ave. -- outside the Factory Restaurant and Bar -- on a report of shots fired, Manz said.

Details of the incident were sparse. Manz told The Jersey Journal that no injuries were reported and the investigation remains ongoing.

Freelance photographer Joe Shine was at the scene and photographed police examining bullet casings on the ground.
