There was no double shooting Sunday north of Marseilles, the La Salle County Sheriff’s Office said.

Early Sunday morning, first responders were dispatched to a residence on the line of Miller and Rutland townships in response to a report of two people injured by gunfire.

However, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office said late Sunday morning the report was unfounded. Investigators instead are probing what police termed “a bullying incident” that led to the filing of a false report.

The La Salle County Coroner’s Office and State’s Attorney’s Office further confirmed there was no gunfire and/or homicide investigation launched on Sunday.
