Neighbors said the gunfire shortly before midnight was so bad, they had to take cover in their homes. They were amazed no injuries were reported.
A woman who lives near 35th and Clybourn didn't hold back when asked about what happened Saturday night.
"It sounded like a war zone out here," she said.
The woman said she and her family took cover inside their home.
"We got on the floor," she said. "We didn't know where the bullets were coming from."

She did not want to talk on camera, fearing for her own safety. She said there was some sort of gathering down the corner of the block. She said her home surveillance caught dozens of people running through the street.
"In our block in the neighborhood, there was at least 50 cars," she said.
Milwaukee police say a fight broke out where an unknown number of people started shooting. Bullets hit a house in the area and a party bus traveling nearby.
Photos from Lou’s Limos, a business out of the Green Bay area, show bullets pierced the bus with 12 passengers on board near 35th and Wisconsin. Passengers were leaving a Morgan Wallen concert at American Family Field.

"The fact that nobody got hurt is amazing to me," said the neighbor.
Lou's Limos' owners wrote on Facebook: "We got stuck in the middle of a drive-by shooting between two vehicles and a street full of people. Although there was extensive damage to the limo bus, we are nothing but grateful our owner/driver and passengers all came out unharmed physically. The outcome could of been much different."
"I like my neighborhood," said the neighbor. "I want to see it get better, but sometimes, I wonder if that’s going to happen."
Milwaukee police are seeking those involved in this incident.
