Rome police are investigating a drive-by shooting on Cherry Street in which the window of a house was broken but no one was injured.

According to reports: Police were called to the 100-block of Cherry Street shortly after 11:30 p.m. Saturday when 9-1-1 received several calls from residents who said shots had been fired and a bullet had hit a house.

The front door of the home had a hole in the window and the glass had shattered. The residents said that no one was hurt. A witness said he was on the couch when he heard the shots fired and got down on the floor.

Another witness said he saw a white or gray Monte Carlo drive in front of the house as the

shots were fired, but he ducked and didn’t see the person shooting.
