PEORIA, Ill. – Peoria Police are investigating a traffic crash from early Sunday morning in the area of a nearby shooting.
The rollover crash occurred in the intersection of Western and Howett, where police say a northbound vehicle on Western swerved to avoid multiple vehicles.
The vehicle then reportedly ran a red light and was struck by a vehicle on Howett, causing it to roll multiple times.
The driver of the rolled vehicle then reportedly exited it and fled on foot, but was never found.
Peoria Police say it is believed the vehicle was fleeing the area of Greenlawn and Lincoln, where officers responded just after 4:15 A.M. after eight shots were fired in the area.
No victims or suspects were found after shots were fired.
