Multiple people were shot in a broad-daylight bloodbath outside of Chicago on Wednesday morning, after two drivers reportedly opened fire at each other in a parking lot.
A large police presence descended on an AutoZone parking lot in Dolton, Illinois, a suburb around 20 miles from Chicago, shortly after 11am.
Helicopter footage captured by ABC7 showed a trail of blood seeping from a vehicle, with at least one other car appearing to be riddled with bullets surrounded by evidence markers.
Police said there were around six victims, local reports said, although officials declined to offer specifics or say if anyone had been killed.
Witnesses said the shooting erupted when individuals inside two separate cars opened fire outside the AutoZone, according to Audacity.com.
Reports indicate the drivers may have crashed into each other around a block away from the Autozone, before ending up in a shootout in the parking lot.
The shooters allegedly jumped out of their cars and opened fire, witnesses said.
One bystander told WBBM that the rapid gunfire was so loud she thought the shooting was happening on top of the dry cleaners she was inside nearby.
An employee at the AutoZone also said no one inside the store was struck by the gunfire.
