Armed police were called after a gunman was seen to '˜pistol whip' a man in an Eastbourne street last night (Thursday).
Officers rushed to Grove Road to reports a man had been seen with a gun and another had been hit with it at around 5pm, said a spokesperson for Sussex Police.
Dramatic footage taken by an onlooker appears to show armed police officers entering businesses in the road.
