A 26-year-old man has been rushed to hospital after being shot in the leg in Marbella.
The shooting is the second to rock the Costa del Sol town within 24 hours.
The victim was hit by at least one bullet in the tibia at around 10pm on Wednesday.
Andalucía’s 112 emergency service received multiple calls reporting a series of gunshots on Avenida Miguel de Cervantes.
Callers said a man was lying on the ground asking for help after being struck by the shots.
Police and paramedics stabilised the victim at the scene before he was taken to hospital for urgent treatment. His condition has not been disclosed.
The Policia Nacional has opened an investigation.
It came just a day after another shooting was reported in Las Albarizas, at around 1pm on Tuesday.
In that case, several shots were allegedly fired outside a bar following a confrontation, though no injuries were reported.
According to witnesses, the gunfire came from an individual travelling in a car, who fled immediately after the incident. Local and national police units responded but found only shell casings at the scene.
