Three men were shot after a drive-by shooting in Aranguez on Wednesday afternoon.

Police said the two 28-year-olds and one 40-year-old were sitting on the corner of Bombay and William Street, Aranguez, at around 5.29 pm, when a black Mitsubishi Lancer drove near them.

Three gunmen wearing ski masks got out of the car and shot the men.

One of the wounded men fell into a drain, while the others tried to run away but collapsed nearby.

The attackers got back in the car and drove off.
