Police have stepped up patrols after a gang of men were shot at in an ambush in Finsbury Park.
Scotland Yard said a group of four men were dropped off by a yellow Toyota Prius before a handgun was produced during the attack late on Saturday night.
The men then ran towards another group of people before one of the gang opened fire in Fonthill Road.
Gio Forino, who was nearby the incident said: “I think there was a shooting in Finsbury Park… I heard a bang, sounded like a firecracker, neighbours gesture gun and armed response”.
Detectives said nobody is believed to have been injured in the shooting at about 11.45pm, and appealed to the men who were fired on to call police.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “The suspect who discharged the firearm is described as white, late-teens, approximately 5ft 10ins tall and was wearing a dark coloured hooded top.
“The other suspects from the Prius have been described as white males and all suspects are reported to have run off in the direction of Tollington Park.”
He added: “Over the coming days there will be an increased police presence in the Fonthill Road area.”
There have been no arrests.
Anyone with information is asked to call Islington Police on 101, quoting the reference 2714184/16, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800555111.
