Police are investigating a shooting in Hatton on Sunday evening that ended with a dramatic car crash.

Two men in a black Toyota BB reportedly opened fire at a roadside car wash, demanding the whereabouts of a man driving a Toyota Corolla. Several rounds were discharged, causing panic, before the gunmen fled.

Their escape was cut short when another motorist pursued the vehicle along Sea Road and rammed it into a fence, causing extensive damage.

One suspect was arrested at the scene and is cooperating with police, who are searching for the second suspect.
