The inbound side of the Eisenhower Expressway was closed for nearly two hours Monday as Illinois State Police investigated earlier reports of a shooting on the highway.
According to police, the expressway closed at approximately 2:20 p.m. between Des Plaines Avenue and Harlem Avenue as troopers search for evidence related to that shooting, which took place earlier Monday.
While no one was injured, gunfire did strike a vehicle near the scene, police said.
The roadway reopened just after 4 p.m., according to police.
The closure has caused continuing delays on the highway as rush hour begins.
The suspect fled the scene of the shooting, and officers are continuing to investigate the incident.
