THE intended victim of a drive-by shooting in Huddersfield was a 33-year-old man, police revealed last night.
Armed officers were sent to Ruth Street in Newsome on Monday afternoon after a shot was fired at the man from a silver car.
Police also revealed that the cartridge fired was a blank.
No-one has been arrested following the incident, which happened around 3.15pm on Monday.
Police sealed off Ruth Street after the shooting.
In an unrelated incident, fire ripped through the mill-owner’s house at nearby Newsome Mills, just minutes after the shooting.
