A 25-year-old man was shot in the leg with an air gun in a drive-by shooting outside Surbiton YMCA.

The man was walking along Brighton Road, at 12.30am on Saturday, when a grey or silver VW Polo was driven slowly past him.

The back passenger window opened and the man, from Surbiton, heard a popping sound and felt a sharp pain in his leg, before the car drove off towards Portsmouth Road.

When he arrived home he discovered his leg was bruised and police believe he was shot by a ball bearing or air gun.
