The complainant indicated that they heard a female yelling for help and that someone was shooting. The complainant went on to say that they observed a male subject running from the area and possibly leaving in a blue sedan, along with a female subject.
Officers conducted a thorough check of the apartment building and were unable to locate a victim or crime scene.
