The shooting took place last night around 2.30am. Several shots were fired. Two people were injured and taken to hospital. One man was shot in the shoulder and is fighting for his life. The other person was hit in the tibia. Bullets also hit a house shattering windows.
The shooting happened near the notorious Clemenceau metro station, where there have already been several shooting incidents in recent weeks. Two people have been killed. Several others were injured. Two suspects have been detained as a police patrol was in the neighbourhood. The shootings are being linked to the settling of accounts among drug gangs. Police are investigating whether last night's shooting in Anderlecht is also related to drug crime.
