COOLBAUGH TWP., MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — Police say they are investigating a report of shots fired outside an Airbnb in the Poconos.

Chief Wagner with the Pocono Mountain Regional Police told 28/22 News for the past 24 to 48 hours police have been getting calls of suspicious activity around the area of Warwick Circle and Coach Road in Coolbaugh Township.

Wednesday morning, an incident took place at a home being rented out via Airbnb known as a “party house”, Chief Wagner stated.

“It was an Airbnb rental, it appears it was a rather large party that had taken place over the last several days.”

Wagner said the guests at the Airbnb were leaving the house when people outside opened fire causing the guests to quickly get into their car, drive away, and ultimately crash.

“Somebody came out of the woodline and fired shots at those guests, they [the guests] then fled and wrecked their car down the road.”
