LONDON - England - The Met police have revealed that Ian Hislop, the Private Eye satire magazine editor, was shot at whilst travelling in a taxi.
Media reports claim Ian Hislop, the long-time editor of the satirical magazine Private Eye, narrowly missed shots fired whilst travelling through Soho in a black cab taxi.
A Metropolitan police spokesperson said: “Police were called at 10.10am on Tuesday, 1 October to a report of a firearms discharge on Dean Street, Westminster.
“The driver of a London black taxi reported he was stationary in traffic when a shot was fired towards his vehicle, striking the window.
“There were no injuries. An investigation has been launched.”
UPDATE
Police investigating a report that a shot was fired at a taxi carrying Ian Hislop have found no evidence of this.
“Urgent CCTV and forensic examinations” instead suggested a mechanical fault with the vehicle, which caused the rear window to shatter, a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said.
The force said officers were continuing to investigate the circumstances of the incident, which took place in Soho, central London, on Tuesday morning. Neither Mr Hislop nor the driver, were injured.
