BROWN COUNTY—Law enforcement authorities are investigating the report of someone driving a light blue Chevy Cruze type vehicle shooting out the rear window of the vehicle on Linden Road at approximately  3:15 p.m. on Sunday, according to Sheriff John Merchant.

Just after 2 p.m. Sunday, there were complaints  of shots fired at the west end of the Hiawatha City lake.

"Although no injuries were reported, this could have resulted in serious
injury of loss of life," according to Merchant.

Authorities know there were more than one person in the light blue vehicle and the sheriff office recommends, "those  involved come forward as additional  felony charges will result the longer this plays out."

We are asking if anyone has information to please contact the Brown
County Sheriff's office at 785-742-7125
