Masked gang target pizza shop in latest Caldmore attack
A gun was reportedly fired and windows smashed in the latest of several violent attacks on the same Walsall estate.
Masked men used a hammer to smash windows of a pizza shop before a gun was reportedly shot in Caldmore Green on Thursday afternoon.
It is at least the third incident in Caldmore in the last six months, while there have also been several brawls involving armed gangs in the area.
West Midlands Police set up an operation dedicated to stopping the violence after a spate of incidents between December and February which officers put down to an ongoing feud between two rival groups.
In Thursday's incident masked men attacked K2 Pizza and Peri Peri after arriving in a car just before 5pm.
