RENO, NV - Reno police are looking for an SUV and at least two people involved in a shooting early Saturday.

Police say about 3:40 AM, a woman and a male friend were walking northbound on South Center Street, crossing Stewart Street in a crosswalk. A red Ford Explorer came at them quickly, almost hitting them, leading to the pedestrians and people in the SUV shouting at each other.
