View Larger Map

This morning, there were several 911 calls reporting gunshots and explosion in Uptown.

The 1st call came from the 800 block of West Agatite.

At 4:23 a.m., someone reported hearing gunshots or a loud explosion.

At 4:25 a.m., 3 teenagers told a 911 operator that someone probably denoted an explosive device in the basement of the 800 West Agatite address.

According to a Chicago police officer, the fire department was called to the 800 West Agatite address, but there was no explosion -- only a "small rubbish fire".

At 6:10 a.m., a man on the 900 block of West Sunnyside notified police that someone set off an explosive near his "Mini Cooper". The man said no one was injured, but his car was damaged.
