Police are searching for the person who fired shots early Sunday in north suburban Beach Park.

Lake County sheriff’s deputies responded about 3 a.m. to a report of gunshots fired in the 12200 block of West 29th Street in Beach Park, according to a statement from the sheriff’s office. Shell casings were found in the area.

Investigators spoke with witnesses and are reviewing area surveillance videos, police said. The preliminary investigation indicates a silver Pontiac Grand Prix, which sped from the area after the gunfire erupted, was likely involved in the incident.

No one was injured in the incident, police said.
