Police are investigating a report of shots being fired near the 1000 block of West Belmont early Saturday morning. No one was struck by the gunfire.
Private security officers reported hearing three shots fired from a vehicle that sped northbound on Kenmore around 2:20 a.m. Other witnesses confirmed the incident when police arrived.
Officers questioned a man who had been detained by the private security patrol. The man, who is on parole and has a history of narcotics convictions, was subsequently released.

CWBChicago was created in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had grown disheartened with inaccurate information that was being provided at local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings.
Our coverage area has expanded since then to cover Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown, and other North Side Areas. But our mission remains unchanged: To provide original public safety reporting with better context and greater detail than mainstream media outlets.
