Police are still appealing for information following a shooting incident on Burngreave Road in October.

At around 8pm on 9th October, a 22- year-old man arrived at the Northern General with gunshot wounds to his hand and arm. Police cordoned off streets around what they believed to be the scene, closing Catherine Road, Burngreave Street and Coupe Road and briefly closing Burngreave Road.

A 23-year-old man was later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. A second young man in his early twenties was arrested on 17th October and is on police bail.

The Police claim there is no risk to the wider public; however, the weapon used has yet to be recovered.

Anyone who may be able to help is asked to call South Yorkshire Police on 101 quoting incident number 1069 of the 9 October or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
