An 18-year-old man was taken to a nearby trauma centre with life-threatening injuries. Police say suffered multiple gunshot wounds but he is expected to survive.
Multiple bullet holes can be seen in the driver side door of a car parked on Milford Haven Drive, indicating the pair were likely inside the car when the shooting occurred.
