Details of incident last week unclear
Police are looking for two persons of interest in an apparent shooting in Five Points last week.
Multiple people called police around 7:30 p.m. Sept. 28 saying they’d heard gunshots, according to police spokeswoman Jennifer Timmons.
But an incident report shows that details surrounding the reports were unclear. An officer was dispatched to three spots around the area where witnesses said they heard the shots.
Just how many shots were fired isn’t clear, Timmons said, but the report says between eight and 10 shots were heard. Police found no evidence when they searched the area, according to the report.
Now, investigators think it may have happened on the 800 block of Harden Street, according to a news release, and they also found “additional information and evidence of a firearm being discharged,” the report said.
Timmons wouldn’t release the details of that evidence, saying doing so could compromise the case.
In surveillance footage, they also spotted two men walking through Five Points at around the time of the shooting, and Timmons said investigators think the pair may have information about the gunshots.
Those men were seen getting into a truck in the video, which investigators think may be a Chevrolet Colorado, according to a release.
No injuries or property damage have been reported as a result of the incident, according to a news release.
The incident comes less than a week after police responded to a separate set of gunshots in Five Points and just days after they promised a crackdown on crime there.
