A suspect opened fire on officers patrolling in Orange on Thursday night, officials said.
The officers were on patrol near Park Lane and Meats Avenue close to the 55 freeway when the suspect started firing rounds at them just before 7:15 p.m., said Lt. Phil McMullin of the Orange Police Department.
The officers escaped injury and were “actively” searching for him in the area, McMullin said.
A suspicious person was found in a backyard but it was unclear if it was the suspected gunman, McMullin said.
