Portland police say they’re searching for two people who shot at someone in Kennedy Park Monday afternoon.

Witnesses say a silver SUV occupied by two black males drove into the area and fired a gun at another male, who was also in a car.

Police say, “the suspects quickly fled the area towards Cumberland Avenue.”

Witnesses say the driver was wearing a black t-shirt, while the passenger was wearing a red hoodie.

A press release sent out by the Portland Police Dept. on Tuesday provided no information on possible injuries connected to the shot that was fired.

Police are urging anyone with information on the two to contact them.
