UPDATED 7:15 a.m.: Two people are in critical, but stable condition after they were shot in a parking lot at the PNC Arts Center in Holmdel, State Police said.

The two victims were both airlifted to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, where they are listed in critical, but stable condition, State Police said in a statement on their Facebook page.

The search for lone shooter was ongoing in wooded area nearby, police said.

A report indicating one of the victims had died was incorrect.

Kyle Mazza ‏@KyleMazzaWUNF of WUNF and the Connecticut School of Broadcast early Tuesday morning tweeted that police had confirmed one of the two people injured, a male in his 20s, had died of multiple gunshot wounds en route to the hospital. A later tweet said that information was wrong.

MIDNIGHT: Two people were shot and wounded late Monday outside the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, police said.

The shooting happened outside the venue just after 11 p.m., according to New Jersey State Police, as reported by CBS2 and various Twitter sources.

The shooter ran into the woods after the shooting, police said in the report.

Two people were wounded and taken away for treatment via Medevac helicopter, the report said. Their conditions were not immediately known.

Hip-hop artists J. Cole, Big Sean, YG and Jeremih had been playing to a sold-out crowd at the PNC Bank Arts Center.
