Two men were fatally shot late Wednesday night outside a convenience store in Bordentown Township, the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office said.

Around 11:30 p.m., police responded to a 7-Eleven and Valero gas station at the intersection of Route 130 North and Farnsworth Avenue and found two men had been shot, the prosecutor’s office said.

A 22-year-old man collapsed outside and died, while a 21-year-old man sought help inside the store, the prosecutor’s office said. The second man was transported to a Trenton hospital, where he later died.

The victims’ names were not released.

The prosecutor’s office said the shooters fled in a Jeep, which later crashed in Florence Township. The shooters remain at large.
