"Our investigation into the circumstances are in their early stages but we want to hear from anyone who saw suspicious activity in the area or might have information that could help.

"If you can help, call us on 101 and quote incident 1322 of November 9."

A Killamarsh woman, who did not want to be identified, said: "Someone was shot late last night.

"It's very unusual as it's normally a very quiet neighbourhood."

A man, who also did not wish to be named, said: "I heard three shots."
