Gun victim teenager 'lucky to be alive'
EIGHT people have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a teenager was seriously hurt in a 'shocking' drive-by shooting carried out in broad daylight.
A gunman on an electric bike opened fire on a taxi, with the victim, 18, hit as he was getting out of the car with others.
In an update yesterday, Greater Manchester Police said the teenage was taken to hospital with serious injuries, where he remained in a 'stable condition.
Detectives said he was 'lucky to be alive' and dubbed the shooting a 'targeted' attack.
The shooting happened at around 12.15pm on Thursday on Shaw Road in the Derker area of Oldham. Armed police swooped on the scene and an air ambulance was scrambled.
