PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A Lebanon man was arrested early Saturday morning after reports of a fight and gunshots, authorities said.

Just after 2 a.m., Lebanon police said they responded to the area of 45 West Sherman Street after a caller reported several people fighting and said that a gun may have been fired.

While on the phone, police dispatchers said they heard what sounded like two gunshots in the background.

When officers arrived, they said they found a group of people gathered on the sidewalk who said that a man in a green jacket with a gold chain had fired three rounds in the air before leaving.

No one at the scene was injured, but police said they did find one 9mm shell casing at the scene.
