One person was killed and another was injured during a weekend shooting at the home of a federal judge in New Jersey.

Authorities are searching for one suspect. A gunman reportedly dressed as a FedEx delivery driver opened fire at the North Brunswick home of U-S District Court Judge Esther Salas on Sunday. Her 20-year-old son was killed and her husband, a defense lawyer, was shot and is in critical condition. Salas was unhurt.

The F-B-I is asking anyone with information about the shooting to contact its Newark office. The bureau did not disclose any possible motive for the attack. Salas was nominated by former President Barack Obama and confirmed to the bench in 2011.
