The Terre Haute Police Department is investigating an early morning drive by shooting on the city's north side.

Officers responded to the report of a shot fired on  N. 12th Street, just east of Beech Street, around 12:30 a.m.

​No injuries were reported; however, witnesses said a male suspect in a white pickup truck was seen armed with a shotgun and fleeing the area before police arrived, according to scanner traffic.

 "No one was hurt and no shots hit any houses," Public Information Officer Ryan Adamson said.

Norris, 29, was taken into custody on an outstanding warrant at that time. He has not been charged in connection to the drive-by shooting at the time of this report. 

Norris  was booked into the Vigo County Jail on unrelated charges at 2:20 a.m.
