MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Memphis Police officers were shot at overnight in the downtown area, according to the department.

Officers on foot responded to an armed party call with an extended magazine near Rufus Thomas Boulevard and Peabody Place after learning about several individuals involved in an argument around 1:50 a.m.

The officers reportedly became caught up in the chaos.

When officers arrived at the scene, they say they began to hear shots and saw a man get into a dark-colored Nissan with a woman driver. When the man got into the getaway car, police say they saw a muzzle flash followed by shots being fired from that vehicle as it drove away.

“There were numerous shots that were fired with numerous shell casings that were found,” said Samuel Hines, Memphis Police Deputy Chief. “Those shots appeared to be directed at the officers.”

No officers were reported injured.

Police say they are looking for three vehicles, including a Nissan Juke, an older model white Suburban, and a white Camaro. They say they have good video footage from the incident and are working to release photos of those responsible.

Marvin Dorsey, a Memphis resident, said that people need to be safe when going out and to make sure to have someone with them.
