ORIGINAL STORY: Hamilton County Sheriff's Office deputies are responding to an incident on the 7000 block of Valley Lane in Hixson, Tenn.
A shots fired call came through to Hamilton County 911 shortly before 7:30 p.m., and afterward a "pursuit of a vehicle" call.
An ambulance was seen leaving the area with emergency lights and sirens, though deputies could not confirm any injuries at the time. Several official vehicles were entering and exiting the area.
A woman was seen in the rain with an umbrella, crying as she spoke on the phone. Another woman joined her later and they spoke to sheriff deputies. Both were crying.
Joshua Rogers, who lives one road over, said he heard police sirens and then six or seven shots fired.
"I was sitting down to play a video game and heard the sirens before the theme music came on, and I was like, 'Why are there sirens before my game starts?'" he said.
Rogers said incidents like these are not a common occurrence for his neighborhood.
"There is an occasional officer that patrols the neighborhood, but never anything like this," he said. "It's always been a quiet neighborhood."
A spokesperson for Hamilton County Sheriffs Office did not immediately return a request for comment.
