Des Moines Police dilemma: Who's the suspect and who's the victim?

It was reported as a shooting around 3:30pm Friday at East 26th and Lyon.  But when police arrived they couldn't find a victim and witnesses told officers there weren't any shots.  

They did tell police a truck sped away around 80 miles an hour from the scene.  

That pickup truck was found at Lutheran Hospital...dropping off a gunshot victim from East Lyon.

Sgt. Paul Parizek says there does appear to be a car crash that took place and they're interviewing witnesses again to find out who was the victim and who was the shooter.  

One person was transferred to the trauma unit at Iowa Methodist Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the abdomen.
