Feb. 01--Chicago police searched for a gunman after shots were reported fired at a North Side building on Sunday afternoon.
Officers responded to a call of shots fired at the building in the 2700 block of North Pine Grove Avenue in the city's Park West neighborhood about 3 p.m., according to Officer Kevin Quaid, a Chicago police spokesman.
"Out of an abundance of caution, SWAT was called,'' but no victims or suspects could be found.
As of 4 p.m., officers remained on the scene searching the area, including the roof of the building, Quaid said.
According to preliminary information from police, the suspect may have been a man with white hair or wearing a white hat who might have been shooting from the roof. A bullet casing was found, police said.
No suspect was found, said police, who also were looking at surveillance video from the area.
According to a Facebook post by Ald. Tom Tunney, 44th, police were reviewing video and believe a male and female were testing a gun on a roof. Tunney said the incident happened in the 43rd Ward and police called it an isolated incident with no injuries reported.
