INGERSOLL - Police are on the lookout for a suspect after shots were fired in Ingersoll.

Oxford OPP say a man shot someone in the Thames Street South area early yesterday afternoon and stole their pickup truck.

The victim is currently being treated in a London area hospital for serious but non-life threatening injuries.

The stolen truck was later involved in a crash in Norfolk County, close to Cockshutt Road and Concession 2.

A good samaritan stopped to help, but the suspect pulled out their gun and stole their white Dodge Ram pickup truck. No one was hurt and the vehicle has since been located.

Police believe the suspect is a white man in his 30s or 40s, standing at about 5'7, weighing about 170 pounds with dark eyes, brown hair and a goatee. He's also described having a pocked marked face with sunken cheek bones and he was wearing a black coat and a hooded sweatshirt at the time.

This man is believed to be armed and dangerous so anyone with information should contact Oxford OPP or Crime Stoppers.
