What happened last night?

Two 22-year-old men and and 16-year-old a boy had been injured when a shotgun was fired into the vehicle they were sitting in.

This was in Gordon Road at 6pm, which is around a 15-minute drive away from Fraser Road.

The victim’s vehicle, a mini cab, was not moving at the time of the incident. Police think a second vehicle pulled alongside the mini-cab and at least two men got out and approached the victims.

One was armed with a shotgun. The shotgun was fired twice into the rear of the vehicle.

The two other passengers and the driver of the mini cab were injured.

None of the injuries are life threatening, although one of the passenger’s injuries are potentially life-changing.
