One person has died and another 13 have been injured after lightning struck a New Jersey archery range Wednesday night, according to police.

NJ Gov. Phil Murphy is under investigation by the U.S. Attorney's office for past comments suggesting he was harboring an illegal immigrant.

Authorities say two people in New Jersey were killed after their vehicle was swept up in flood waters during a storm that moved across the U.S. Northeast overnight.
