Police officers fired multiple shots at a vehicle in Eastlake after it backed toward the officers, according to a public information officer for the Seattle Police Department. The vehicle fled and was found Monday afternoon, the police blotter reported.

Officers on Sunday night responded to a 911 call of a "suspicious vehicle." One nearby resident, a landlord who declined to give his name, said one of his tenants made the call. The landlord said he was watching TV when he heard between 15 and 20 gunshots coming from an alley outside his building near Lake Union. Another resident, Kelli Nelson, also said she heard between 15 and 20 gunshots.

No officers were injured during the incident, according to Public Information Officer Patrick Michaud. He said there were up to three people in the "suspicious vehicle," a black Subaru that was likely struck on its passenger side. Speaking to reporters near the scene, Michaud did not say how many officers were involved.

The department is investigating whether the people in the vehicle were armed at the time of the shooting. It is unclear whether anyone was injured.
