You heard anything about this Craig? My other half's mum lives a few roads down and she didn't hear anything. Bit worrying as Jenkin usually a relatively quite area

I can't find anything on this.

Where did you hear the story?

I used to live near Jenkin only 2 weeks ago.

Just checked this with South Yorkshire police press office. They say they know nowt about a shooting in Wincobank on Sunday morning. "Probably a car back-firing," was the quote.

This just shows how the press office works.
Jenkin was closed off from Sandstone down to Oxted Roads whilst an investigation was carried out. There were six police cars involved. The police then made house to house enquiries at the nearby resideces and shops.
