A car was shot at in an unincorporated area near Fairmont School, Will County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Chief Dan Jungles said.

About 3 p.m. Thursday, deputies responded to the area of Green Garden and Princeton Street in Lockport Township regarding a vehicle that crashed into a fence, Jungles said.

Once at the scene, deputies observed that the vehicle had been struck by gunfire, and it was unoccupied, he said.

While at the scene, Lockport Fire Protection District crews said they saw three Black males chasing another Black male on nearby Fairmont Avenue, Jungles said.

When canvasing the area, deputies found a witness who said that an unknown Black male knocked on his door and asked him to call the police because he had just been shot, Jungles said.

Deputies were not able to find any evidence of an individual being shot, Jungles said.

Three individuals were detained for questioning regarding the incident and later released without charges, Jungle said.

No victim has been found from the incident, he said.
