Arlington Heights police responded just after 8:00 PM Monday to a report of shots fired in the 1200 block of East Northwest Highway. Police received a report of a shot fired from a red Dodge Dakota pickup truck with a ladder rack in the back of the truck.

A good vehicle description was obtained for the truck. The truck was last seen westbound in the alley toward Chatham Place.

A public works truck was working in the area, but the driver did not hear any shots fired.

Sunday night a loud bang was reported in the 300 block of South Derbyshire about 11:40 p.m. and a few minutes later a vehicle owner reported his car motor ‘exploded’ but there was no fire.

Police and fire responded to that incident Sunday. Arlington Heights police are investigating.
