A man shot a gun into the air during a dispute Sunday night outside the Carmelitos housing community in North Long Beach, according to police.

Long Beach police said a resident told officers he got into an argument with a man outside his home around 8 p.m. in the 800 block of Via Wanda.

The disagreement escalated, and the man shot into the air, police said. Nobody was wounded, and the shooter drove away before officers arrived, Long Beach Police Department spokesman Brandon Fahey said.
