Wednesday morning, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department Hemet Station received calls from four different people reporting the sound of gunshots in the Cedar Glen area, according the Hemet Capt. Joseph Borja.

“We responded, but no one was located or arrested,” he said.

The callers provided a limited description of the shooters. One even thought the voices suggested the person may have been inebriated, Borja added.

The identification of the area of the shots varied from Cedar Glen Drive, Point of Rocks Drive, Doubletree Drive (which is in the Cedar Glen neighborhood) and the Idyllwild Nature Center, according to Borja.
