Police are investigating a case of murder

A shocking video circulating on social media has captured the moment a 29-year-old man was gunned down in what police believe may have been a gang-related hit in Ottery over the weekend.

The 48-second clip, which has been widely shared online, shows a white vehicle pulling up on the opposite side of a road near what appears to be a car wash on Ottery Road on Saturday afternoon.

Two men are seen exiting the vehicle before crossing the street and approaching a table where several people are seated. Within seconds, the pair run towards the group and open fire on one of the men seated at the table.

The suspects are then seen sprinting back across the road and climbing into the same vehicle, which speeds away from the scene.
