We may never know who fired the shots, but within a few seconds the police had it under contol and were just going about getting all the evidence they needed. No ambulances were at the scene and at least 3 suspect were taken away after being throughly searched.

Why waste police time - clearly nothing of importance has happened.

I walked past shortly after the event, having been booted off the bus, and it was still cordoned off. A policeman very very politely asked us to walk around Piedmont Green rather than through the crime scene, and said that shots had been fired.

I can't imagine anyone was hurt, as the road reopened five or ten minutes later.

Oh dear, so there definitely were some gun shots fired then :(

There were bangs which were assumed at the time to be gun shots - quite possibly a starting pistol - the fact that there has been so little in the news etc. suggests that this may not have been live ammuninition - when that is used the police tend to cordon off for some considerable time afterwards for forensics etc.

    • Happy Dan Hannan day everyone   https://substack.com/home/post/p-166594385    
    • Yes, it seemed to have an underlying agenda, and a strange first post. That's really good that you took photos and gave them to the police. Hopefully the kids can be identified before they physically hurt someone (or cause further damage or distress).
    • Agreed Sue - I was suspicious of this post. The poster has only posted once, too.  If you were one of those kids, or you know them, I can tell you that I have some excellent photos of some of them on the roof, which I passed to the police.  What they did was assault. 
    • Why? Unless there were distinctive features such as unusual clothing, how is that going to identify them, and even if it did, what would be the point, without photographic evidence that they had done anything wrong?
