It was also reported a gun was fired from inside one of the cars – and that both had previously been witnessed driving erratically and had collided with two other vehicles.

No injuries were reported and officers suspected those inside the two cars are known to each other.

After searches by armed police and the helicopter, six people were arrested and two vehicles seized.
