Getaway car could be key to solving Drumchapel 'targeted shooting'

Cops have reappealed for information after gunshots were fired at two homes in Drumchapel last week.

A firearm was discharged at the front windows of two properties on Drummore Road at around 11pm on Friday (May 31).

As previously reported in Glasgow Live people were inside both homes at the time of the shooting.

The front windows of both properties are damaged but nobody has been injured as a result of the shooting.

Enquiries carried out so far have revealed that a white, 5-door VW Golf, with tinted windows, was seen in the area around the time of the incident. 

The vehicle was seen moments before travelling west on Kinfauns Drive before turning into Peel Glen Road and then turning into Drummore Road.

Shortly after the firearm was discharged, the car sped off, up Peel Glen Road towards the Bearsden, Milngavie areas.

Officers are continuing to review CCTV footage and would like to speak to anyone who may have any additional information which could assist the investigation.

Detective Inspector John Morrison said: “I am appealing to anyone who may have seen this car to contact us.  No-one was injured in the incident, however it’s imperative we trace whoever is responsible.

"I am urging anyone who may have seen this car, in particular motorists, with dash cam footage, to check their footage as it may have captured vital information.  If you have any images or information, please do get in touch.” 

Anyone with information is asked to call CID officers at Drumchapel Police Station via 101, quoting incident number 0190 of the 1 June 2019.

Alternatively, you can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be given anonymously.
