Suspected gun fired in street disturbance

Police said a man was seen in Hanley with a "long-barrelled weapon"

A gun is believed to have been fired during a disturbance in Stoke-on-Trent, police have said.

Officers were called to Balfour Street, in Hanley, shortly before 20:30 GMT on Tuesday after reports of a man in a group of people with a "long-barrelled weapon".

Two vehicles and a house were damaged in the disturbance, though Staffordshire Police said it was not clear if this was caused by gunshots.

A man inside an address suffered minor injuries, which were believed to have been caused by broken glass.

A cordon has been put in place while forensic officers work at the scene, a police spokesperson confirmed.
