Omaha police found two people seriously injured with gunshot wounds after responding to a nearby 'shots fired' call.

About five minutes later, police responded to a call about a person bleeding at the QuikTrip near Northwest Radial Highway and Hamilton Street, according to Sheridan.

The victims were sent to the hospital with serious injuries but are expected to be OK. Investigators have not confirmed if the three scenes are related. No arrests have been made.
