AURORA, Colo — Deputies detained and released two men after shots were fired at the Cherry Creek State Park swim beach Sunday evening.

The Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office said witnesses told deputies they saw two men firing weapons around 6 p.m. The men then jumped into their car and took off.

Deputies had a description of the men and tried to stop them, the Sheriff's Office said, but they refused. 

Deputies performed a tactical vehicle intervention and used their patrol cars to end the pursuit just east of the park at East Smoky Hill Road and East Radcliff Drive in Aurora, where the suspects' car hit a fence and crashed into the back yard of a home.

No injuries were reported at the swim beach or the crash site, according to the sheriff's office.

The two men were questioned by investigators and released, said the Sheriff's Office, which referred to them as persons of interest. No arrests have been made.
