A MAN arrested over one of four shootings in Huddersfield in less than a week has been released on bail.
Two gun attacks happened in the space of just two hours on Thursday night.
In one of the blasts a taxi driver was injured when a gunman opened fire at his car in a ‘targeted’ attack on his passengers in Holays in Dalton.
Residents reported hearing three gunshots before the white taxi sped off, the innocent driver having suffered non-life threatening injuries.
A 22-year-old man arrested over the incident has been released on bail pending further enquiries, a spokesman for West Yorkshire Police said.
Another man arrested after police swooped on a house on Brownroyd Avenue in Rawthorpe remains in police custody.
Just an hour after the first shooting at 8.50pm, shots were fired three miles away in Deighton.
A VW Golf on New House Road was hit by bullets and it’s believed that the gunmen were on foot.
The week of violence began last Saturday night when a gunman fired at four people on Dalton Fold Road in Rawthorpe in a drive-by style shooting.
Detectives are also investigating after a front door was damaged during a shooting at The Ghyll in Fixby on Sunday evening.
