At least three bullets were fired, hitting a parked car’s windshield and the panel of a bus shelter.

According to sources speaking to Cadena Ser, investigators are working on the theory that the shooting was the result of a traffic incident between members of rival criminal clans.

The incident unfolded shortly after 1pm on Calle Jose Iturbi, in the area of Las Albarizas.

According to the Malaga Provincial Police Station, no one was hit by the bullets, with up to three reported to have been fired.

It appears the shots were fired by an individual in a car, who then fled the scene.
