A 14-year-old and three men have been arrested on suspicion of firearms offences after shots were fired in Brimsdown.
An investigation has been launched into the incident in Redlands Road late last night and police are still at scene after cordoning off a large section of the road.
The 14-year-old, along with three men, two aged 24 the other 50, were arrested at the scene and remain at a north London police station.
A neighbour, who chose to remain anonymous, said he was woken in the middle of the night to loud banging down the road.
He said: “You could hear them at the other end of the road shouting ‘armed police, armed police’ and there was all sorts of police cars and firearm trucks down here, it was like a movie scene.”
No injuries have been reported as firearms officers continue to investigate the area.
