Shortly after 10pm Thursday night shots rang out at YZ Manufacturing.com at 431 Post Road East. This is the same plaza as Gold’s Delicatessen and Coehn’s Optical in the Compo Shopping Center. It is uncertain if the shooting was a robbery gone wrong but the two victims were from YZ Manufacturing which is a manufacturer of jewelry and also diamond cutters. One person was confirmed dead at Norwalk Hospital and the other is in critical condition. It is unknown how many shooters there were. The Westport Major Crime Squad and State Police Crime Squad are now on the scene investigating.
