Local police agencies were on the lookout for an older model
black pickup truck with a ladder rack and loud muffler following
the report of shots fired from the vehicle traveling west on Triple
Lakes Road in the area of Wagner Road. The incident was reported
shortly after noon, police said, and the truck was parked on the side
of the road. “The shots were in no particular direction and no one,
and no property was struck,” St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department
Capt. Bruce Fleshren said. Per an Illinois State Police Emergency
Radio Network broadcast, the suspect driving the truck was a
30-year-old White male with multiple tattoos who is wanted on an
Illinois Department of Corrections parole violation. A short time
later in Centreville, it was reported that this same truck stopped and
the driver fired two shots in the direction of a male in the area.
Thankfully, no one was struck. “The victim here told deputies that
he knew the suspect, but did not know why he was shooting,” Fleshren
said. Based on information from the second shooting, the St.
Clair County Sheriff’s Department has a person of interest sought.
“No motive is known at this time,” Fleshren added. The suspect
vehicle was last seen in East St. Louis in the area of the Eads
