Six men arrested over Leeds shotgun 'murder attempt'
Six men have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a shotgun was fired at a car.
A 22-year-old man was in his BMW on Back Maud Avenue, Beeston, on Saturday when a blast damaged the car. He was not injured. Armed officers arrested one man in Leeds city centre on Tuesday and a second in Whinmoor. Four men were also arrested by armed officers when a vehicle was stopped in Bradford, West Yorkshire Police said. The Passat car from which the shot was fired was later found burnt out, said the force. Detectives are probing a possible link to a similar shooting in Maud Avenue on Wednesday 11 October. Two men sustained minor injuries when a shotgun was fired at the car they were in. Det Ch Insp Jaz Khan said: "We believe these have been targeted attacks linked to an ongoing dispute."
