A BOY and a 35-year-old man were shot with a "silenced pistol" in broad daylight yesterday.
The teen, 15, and adult were attacked in a Birmingham street at around 4.30pm - with the shooter still on the run.It is thought the pair were deliberately targeted before the gunman fled the scene in a car.He appears to be holding a gun in his hand as he speeds through the traffic in Warwick Road, Solihull.
The witness told the MailOnline: "It is 100 per cent a gun, if you look on the right hand side after a few seconds you can see him aim the gun, it had a silencer on it. Definitely a gun."We were afraid we were going to get shot if we drove past the shooter and into his line of fire as he seemed to miss a few shots.
"The offender made off in a vehicle and police are calling for witnesses to contact them via Live Chat at west-midlands.police.uk between 8am and midnight, call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting log number 1702 of 11/5."In 2018, the number of murders in the UK increased by 14 per cent from 649 in 2017 to 739.
