A suspect reportedly fled after a gunshot was detected in a Pasadena neighborhood Thursday night, police said.
Around 11:14 p.m., Pasadena police officers responded to the 100 block of West Hammond Street following a ShotSpotter alert that detected a single gunshot in the area, according to Lt. Edgar Sanchez.
When officers arrived, they reportedly saw an unidentified man fleeing northbound on foot through the Kings Village apartment complex. Sanchez said that officers established a containment with the assistance of a department airship but were unable to locate the suspect after an area search.
It is unknown if the man was connected to the gunshot detection, Sanchez said. Officers reportedly located a single shell casing as evidence of a shooting in the area.
At this time, there are no known victims related to the incident and no description of the suspect was available, according to Sanchez.
