Bethlehem police are seeking information from the public after shots were fired Tuesday night near a city park.

The department said in a social media post that shots were fired about 7:45 p.m. near Yosko Park in the 600 block of Atlantic Street. No one was hurt, and no one has been arrested.

Yosko Pool, which is at the park, closed about 45 minutes earlier. The pool was free for residents 5-7 p.m. that day during a heat wave in the region. 

Additional officers will be assigned to Yosko Park and surrounding areas while police investigate the gunfire, the department said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 610-865-7000 or at BethlehemPolice@bethlehem-pa.gov.
