LINCOLN PARK — Police are looking for a man and a woman who fired shot from the top of a building Sunday in Lincoln Park, according to Ald. Tom Tunney (44th.)
"Police are reviewing video, and believe a male and female were testing a gun on a roof. Police share that this is an isolated incident, and no injuries have been reported. Their investigation continues. Updates will be shared as they are given," Tunney posted.
At 4:15 p.m., Chicago police tweeted that the heavy police activity in the 2700 block of North Pine Grove Avenue was "not an active shooter incident."
"No offender was located and no one was injured," the post read.
That's after people began reporting police activity at Pine Grove and Wrightwood avenues on social media, beginning around 3:15 p.m.
Chicago police spokeswoman Officer Bari Lemmon confirmed that a SWAT team had been called to the scene.
Pictures from neighbors at the scene show police officers and squad cars filling the area.
"I heard maybe 5 shots fired, sounded like more. I could tell some echoes, than like a 10 second pause and then five more," Sam McIntire, who lives in the neighborhood, told reporters.
Another area resident, Jeff Kemp, said his neighbor saw a man and woman from the window of her high-rise window.
"She saw two people on the roof. She saw a motion go up in the air and that is when she heard the shots," Kemp told ABC7.
A roof surveillance camera captured the shooting and police tried to identify the pair by showing building tenants their picture, ABC7 said.
"There's places you can go do that. It's amazing someone would be that moronic to do that in a highly populated area, any part of the city," Kemp said.
