Arkansas State Police are investigating after officers in Pine Bluff opened fire during a traffic stop Tuesday night, authorities said.
Bill Sadler, a state police spokesman, confirmed that police fired at least once after two officers stopped a vehicle near the intersection of 13th and Fir streets shortly after 10 p.m.
Whether shots were fired by anyone in the stopped vehicle remains under investigation, Sadler said.
The driver fled in the vehicle "as gunshots were fired," state police said in a news release, noting the car was later found abandoned near the intersection of 17th and Arlington streets.
Police said they do not believe anyone was injured.
No arrests have been made.
