COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs Police officers are looking for a car that crashed into a fence, and possibly a shooter after an incident early Monday morning.

Officers said they went to Casa Grande Bar in the 2400 block of South Academy Boulevard around 1:48 a.m. after someone called them about gunshots being fired in the area.

While en route, officers also learned a gold four-door sedan drove through a residential fence that borders the bar to the north, but the car was gone when they arrived.

According to one witness, several shots were fired, then the car crashed into the fence before driving away. The witness said the car may be a Saturn and may have bullet holes on the driver's side door. That door also likely has damage from the crash.

Officers did not arrest anybody but are continuing the investigation.
