Yep....... these guys actually fired at the police. This is an escalation that you don't normally see in the gun crime in Britain. Normally, criminals in Britain seem to shoot to wound, in order to punish or threaten....they almost never shoot at actual police....
This time...they shot at police....
By the way.....armed police operations in gun free Britain are up 19%.....
Dramatic car chase ends in police shootout in east London
Armed police were in a shoot out with three men following a car chase in east London.
Three people have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after shots were fired towards officers.
Police were called to Lascelles Close in Leytonstone at 10.45pm on Thursday to reports of suspects seen with a gun.
Armed officers attended the scene and, a short time later, a vehicle was seen nearby which failed to stop for officers.
The suspects were arrested in Bective Road, Forest Gate, more than a mile away from where officers were initially called.
Scotland Yard said "a number of shots were fired towards officers" during a pursuit, and police also fired weapons.
