Women arrested over shooting
Police tape
The man was shot in the shoulder
Two women have been arrested in connection with a shooting in Oxfordshire.

The arrests come after a 25-year-old man was abducted at the Iffley Turn in Oxford last Tuesday night.

He was driven to Toot Baldon, where it is thought a sawn-off shotgun was used to shoot him.

The man was treated in hospital for a wound to his shoulder but was later released.

The women are currently being questioned by detectives at Cowley in Oxford.
