Shots fired at unmarked Omaha Police vehicle

Omaha police say an unmarked police vehicle was struck when shots were fired at plainclothes officers who’d been following two men in a car. Police say no one was injured in Wednesday afternoon’s incident on the east side of the city.

A police news release says the officers reported seeing two suspicious men get into the car, so they followed it for a block to an area when they saw several more people. Police say shots were then fired at the officers, and the people fled – some on foot and several in the car the officers had been following.

The car was found a few blocks away, and four people were taken into custody. Police haven’t released any names nor said whether the four have been charged.
