EASTLAKE — One person was injured in an accidental shooting at a gun range in Eastlake, where responding police officers were involved in a multi-vehicle accident with civilian motorists.
Just after 7 p.m. on Thursday, Eastlake police responded to the 33000 block of Vine Street for a report of a shooting at Sherwin Shooting Sports that left one person injured. Police said that the person who accidentally discharged the weapon and the victim were both employees.
Police said officers administered first aid, and the victim was taken to UH Lake West by the Eastlake Fire Department.
All units responded to the incident, according to police. That's when a five-car accident involving two Eastlake officers and two civilians took place at the intersection of State Route 91 and Glen Drive.
News 5 was on the scene and could see a white car flipped on its side with the roof cut out. In front of the car was a wrecked cruiser, and beside it was another white car smashed between the cruiser and a dark grey van.

Two civilians were taken to UH Lake West and Hillcrest Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The two officers were also transported to UH Lake West with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
On Friday, Eastlake Police Chief Michael Werner told News 5 the Lake County Crash Reconstruction Team is conducting an investigation that will take "a few days."
The two officers and one victim from the accident have all been released from the hospital, Werner said, and one of the victims is being admitted to Hillcrest and is in stable condition.
