Police are investigating after shots were fired in a Belvedere pub over the Easter weekend.

Panic ensued on the evening of Saturday, March 31, when punters reported how someone barged into The Fox in Nuxley Road and opened fire with a gun.

A Scotland Yard spokesman confirmed: “Police were called at approximately 22.43hrs on Saturday, March 31 to reports of a firearm being discharged at a property on Nuxley Road.

“Officers attended. An expended ammunition casing was recovered at the scene."

He added that no injuries were reported and so far no arrests have been made.

One shaken pubgoer took to Twitter and commented: “Shots fired in Fox Pub in Belvedere tonight.

“Pub was packed because of the boxing. Armed police in attendance.”

The account claimed “two men in balaclavas” came into the pub and started shooting.

It added: “Such a frightening world.”

News Shopper contacted The Fox for further information but a member of staff declined to comment.

Enquiries are ongoing.
