Bracknell

Two people have been arrested following last week’s incident in Bracknell where a 30-year-old man was shot in the leg.

The pair, a man in his 40s and a 13-year-old boy, were arrested from their home address in Bracknell late on Friday 21 April, following a pre-planned police operation.

Both were arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent. They have since been released on police bail to return to Maidenhead police station later next month.

In the meantime, Bracknell officers continue to appeal for anyone with information who has not yet come forward to do so immediately.

The victim was walking along Jiggs Lane South on Tuesday night (18/4) when he felt a sudden pain in his left leg. He had sustained a single shot for which he underwent surgery and is now recovering at home.

If you were in the area at the time of the incident and have information that may assist police with their investigation, then please call Det Insp Petford at Bracknell police station via the 24 hour Police Enquiry Centre on 0845 8 505 505. Those who do not wish to speak to police or leave their name should call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
