Don't have any details as it is out of my radio range, but just heard on NJ Transit Police, multiple units including an ESU unit responding to 59 Locust Ave in Fanwood for some sort of active shooter or hostage situation. The house is adjacent to the Raritan Valley Line, so trains are being held between Fanwood and Westfield stations.

As of 7am it sounds like there is still some type of activity going on. A call went out for Sheriff's ID to report to the scene.
