THIS is the shocking moment two teenage yobs fired shots at a cyclist before fleeing on an e-bike. Ramarni Spencer and Pharrell McLennon blasted the victim at close range as they rode through a shopping precinct in broad daylight, leaving shoppers seeking refuge.

CCTV shows the pair, now aged 18, attack the teenager as he rode through the Bridgeway Centre, The Meadows in Nottingham. The gunmen fled but were caught two days later at East Midlands Airport where they were waiting for a flight to Alicante, Spain. Bodycam footage shows officers arrest the pair as they ordered food at a burger restaurant in departures.

They both pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life at Nottingham Crown Court. On Friday (January 24), McLennon, of Clifton, Nottingham, was jailed for 13 years, while Spencer, of Beeston, was sentenced to 10-and-a-half years in prison.

Both will spend their respective sentences in a young offenders' institution. Police had initially been called to the shopping centre after a store employee reported hearing a possible gun shot which had smashed a window. When detectives analysed CCTV they discovered there had been a gathering of young people at the shopping centre around 3.25pm on May 5 last year.

Two young men were seen on an electric bike before they both produced pistols and fired them at another youth, who was also riding a bicycle. Detectives worked quickly and identified the two teenagers as suspects. Investigations then revealed they were making attempts to escape the country.
