Clovis police on Friday were investigating reports of shots fired and a man hit by a pickup truck near the 800 block of Wallace Street.
When police arrived on scene late Thursday night they found a man in the road, bleeding from his head.
Subsequent investigation found another man in the area who reported he hit a man with his pickup after the man shot at him, according to police Capt. Robert Telles.
The man in the road was taken to a Texas hospital. Telles said he did not know the man’s condition but said injuries prevented him from being interviewed by police.
The man in the pickup was cooperating with police. He said he did not know the man he said put two bullet holes in his pickup.
A woman believed to be the injured man’s girlfriend was with the man in the road when police arrived. Police had not interviewed her as of Friday afternoon, Telles said.
The man in the pickup was not injured. Telles said no arrests had been made as of Friday afternoon.
