A large fight in the parking lot of IHOP early Friday morning escalated into shots being fired, according to Rome police reports.

According to the report:

Three women entered the restaurant, located at 35 Riverbend Drive, at about 2 a.m. and began to fight.

After the night manager told them to “take it outside,” a larger fight began in the parking lot. That’s when the night manager heard three gunshots.

A man then came into the restaurant bleeding from his hand and went into the restroom. He left a short time later.

The report did not state whether or not the man sustained the injury from one of the gunshots.

Officers responding to the night manager’s 911 call saw several vehicles traveling in the opposite direction of the restaurant before arriving and found no one in the parking lot.

Officers found two unfired 9mm bullets and three 9mm casings in the parking lot.

There were no suspects at the time of the report. Video from the restaurant’s security cameras was supposed to be handed over to detectives Friday.
