Two of the store's employees broke out into a fight during a work-related argument at about 9:58 a.m., Millburn Police Capt. Michael Mulligan confirmed. One of the women suffered "bumps to the head," and was transported to St. Barnabas Medical Center for treatment, he said.
Both employees were women - a 20-year-old from Vauxhall and a 22-year-old from Irvington, authorities said.
Police said they advised both women involved in the dispute that they could sign simple assault complaints in Millburn Municipal Court. The court offices were closed Wednesday in observance of Veterans Day, so could not answer a call for comment.
A spokesperson for ShopRite acknowledged but did not respond to a request for comment.
