Police are investigating after a gun was fired in Scarborough on Saturday night.

It was one of two incidents of violence that North Yorkshire Police are investigating.

Officers were called at 11.35pm to reports that a man had been assaulted on Wreyfield Drive.

A North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “He was taken to hospital where he was treated for minor injuries.

“Following investigation, it appears that a firearm of some description was discharged in the area at the time.

“We are appealing for any information that could assist our investigation into the incident.”

A 20-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident and has been released on bail pending further investigation. 

Earlier, at around 10pm, an argument and disturbance took place near to the row of shops on Colescliffe Road.

“We’d like to hear from anyone who has any dashcam or doorbell camera footage that may have captured something, in particular any of the people involved in the two incidents, or any vehicles in the areas at the time,” the police said.
