North Aurora police probe 2 shootings of the same vehicle
North Aurora police are investigating two incidents of shots fired Sunday that damaged the same vehicle on the 200 block of Linn Court.
Officers were first sent to the area for a report of a shattered rear window at 12:18 a.m. The owner heard a loud bang at 12:15 a.m. and did not see anything suspicious.
