Police received reports that a man had opened fire inside Roebling Market, where the all-night event took place, shortly before 3 am.
"It's a massive crime scene," Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo J. Onofri said at a news conference.
Trenton Mayor Eric Jackson described the incident as “truly a tragedy,” and expressed his sympathies to the victims and their families.
One eyewitness told WPVI that he saw a person with gunshot wounds. “I saw two police officers escort a guy that got shot in the leg,” he said. “They bandaged him up and whisked him away before the ambulance came here."
The 24-hour arts festival has since been cancelled.
