A passenger in a car fired on by Omaha police is clinging to life in a local hospital.

Omaha police say the shooting followed an attempt by officers to arrest two people who were in a vehicle in a southeast Omaha parking lot. Police say the suspects refused to follow orders, and when the vehicle began ramming an unmarked police car, an officer fired on the suspects’ car.

Police say the vehicle fled the parking lot and was soon found parked on a nearby street. Investigators say the driver was not found, but a man in a passenger seat was found suffering from a gunshot wound.

The man was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Police planned to hold a news conference Saturday to release more information.
