Gunmen in Clown Masks Open Fire on Crowd of Ravers in London (VIDEO)

Graphic video published by the Daily Star shows the moment gunmen opened fire on party-goers at an illegal Halloween rave on Saturday night in London.

The video, taken by an attendee of the East London rave, shows a crowd of people assembled in a nightclub moments before shots rang out. Three shooters are reportedly responsible for the attack, and “were wearing clown, ghost and ghoul masks,” per the Daily Star.

One 41-year-old man was shot in the leg, and can be seen in the video on the floor as party-goers work to stop the blood flowing from his wound. A woman in her 20s was also reportedly shot in the chest. Both victims survived the attack.

From the Star:

One raver at the event told The Sun that over 100 people were trapped inside after the gang “blocked off the only road out of the rave with a car”.

“There must have been at least four guns,” they said. “It was terrifying.”
