Gunmen in masks opened fire during a rave in east London, despite the laws prohibiting citizens from possessing handguns.

The incident happened on Oct. 28 at the “Money Move” rave in the district of Leyton in northeast London.

The U.K. Sun reported that the venue was described as an African church, which was often hired for raves.

At least three men wearing clown, ghost and ghoul masks entered the establishment with automatic weapons and began firing, according to The Sun.

A 41-year-old man was shot in the leg and a woman believed to be in her 20s was shot in the chest in the attack, police said, according to The Sun. Both victims are expected to recover from their wounds.

One witness told The Sun there must have been at least four weapons used in the shooting.

"One witness told The Sun there must have been at least four weapons used in the shooting." HUH? Bad enough there was "a" gun in London but 4? OMG! Reliable witness statements. We all know how those are. Highly unreliable. Kind of like the lead in. Illegal to posses handguns then somehow they are suddenly automatic weapons. More to follow. Or not.

Is such a thing even possible? I mean, they had signs and everything, right?

Impossible. It’s a gun-free zone.

Strange that the headline doesn’t match the article. The headline suggests one shooter but the article counts three.

I think we should focus on the perps, not the guns,

At least three men wearing clown, ghost and ghoul masks entered the establishment with automatic weapons and began firing...

Well, it suggests one man. Maybe the paper didn’t want to assume the other two shooters’ genders.

The title could cause a problem for the writer as well. Better to have said “Masked entity Shoots up rave party.” The gender clown thing. You know.
