The newspaper says three employees were working inside the building when it was struck by bullets early Saturday, but no one was hurt.

Pioneer employees heard one bullet break through a window. That bullet went into a wall.

The damage was reported to police. It then was discovered that another bullet went through a window in the main entryway but did not break through the doorway.

Police suspect the business was shot at by someone in a vehicle. It's unknown whether the Pioneer was targeted or if it was a random shooting.

No arrests are reported.
