A number of cars prevented the occupants from leaving the area, and after only a few moments the occupants from one of the vehicles opened fire at the car which Robinson was travelling in.

Two armed response units who were patrolling the area arrived within five minutes of the incident.

3 ambulances and an advanced paramedic vehicle arrived within 7-8 minutes of the police's arrival at the scene.

Paramedics attempted to resuscitate the three men, however their efforts were in vain.

This incident has only unfolded within the previous 20 or so minutes, and information is rapidly unfolding.

More information will be made available as it comes in.

This is an eyewitness account.
