Upon arrival, officers received information that a black Cadillac had stopped on Lynwood Lane. One of the vehicle occupants stepped out of the vehicle and fired a handgun at a residence. The suspect got back into the vehicle and it drove away.
After officers issued a BOLO for the vehicle, an officer spotted the vehicle on Dick Drive. The officer attempted to stop the vehicle, but its operator accelerated and attempted to flee. After a brief motor vehicle pursuit, the suspect vehicle pulled into a driveway on Haviland St. As the occupants opened the doors and attempted to flee, officers ordered them to the ground and placed them in handcuffs.
