Two gunmen are firing upon police and people from a building on Martin Luther King Drive near Bidwell Avenue, injuring at least one police officer Tuesday afternoon.

Martin Luther King Drive has been cleared of people, police said.

The two gunmen arrived in the area in a U-Haul van, each carrying long guns into the bodega, police said in radio transmissions.

The grocery is the Jersey City Kosher Supermarket. A Talmud Torah located on the second floor is currently on lockdown.

At 12:51 p.m., police reported that a person appeared to be shot inside the store, near the front entrance.
