Two men wanted by police in connection with a firearms discharge in Lancaster have been arrested.

Earlier this week we appealed for information to find Jason Singleton, 31 and Sean Corless, 38, after gunshots were discharged close to properties in Patterdale Road and Ennerdale Close around 10.30pm on January 25.

Damage to a car, consistent with a firearm being shot, was found in Ennerdale Close. A BMW car was driven from the scene following the incident and found a short time later off Meldon Road, Heysham. It is believed the vehicle had been stolen from a property in the Bay Horse area earlier the same evening.

Both men were arrested on suspicion of possession of firearms with intent yesterday (Wednesday, February 1) in Lancaster.

We are continuing to appeal for CCTV, doorbell footage and dashcam footage from the area around the time of the offence.
