Bolingbrook police continue to try and identify the six people involved in a shooting incident Tuesday at the Innsbruck Apartment Complex on Boughton Road, and are asking the two men who appeared to be targets to step forward and provide information.

We have no apparent motive, no suspects and no victims at this time, said Lt. Chris Prochut, spokesman for the Bolingbrook Police Department.

At about 5:15 p.m. on Tuesday police received multiple telephone calls from residents at the complex of shots fired in the area west of the 505 Preston Drive Building.

According to witness reports, four young men approached two young men near a fire lane when one of the four men fired four or five shots from a handgun at the two men, who fled on foot. After the shots were fired the group of four men also ran away in different directions, Prochut said.

By the time officers arrived on the scene no suspects were found, nor were the intended targets located.

Police believe the gun used in the shooting was a handgun, and a bullet taken from a window frame in the 505 Preston Drive Building is being examined as evidence.

There were no shell casings found at the scene, and the number of shots were four or five, based on witness statement, so we are thinking it was a revolver, Prochut said.

Police checked nearby hospitals and emergency medical centers and said there were no reports of gunshot wounds reported.

Prochut said investigators were in the process of contacting witnesses a second time to gain additional information.
