A west London nightclub could lose its licence after a gun battle erupted at the exact moment a health and safety officer was visiting to investigate crime and disorder claims.

Oof. Bad timing. Not that there's ever good timing for a gun fight but, you know.

Don't bring a Health and Safety officer to a gun fight.

Really? I thought y'all were practically gun free over there?

No one was injured, yet this is news and the place may shut down over it.

In the US this would be called Tuesday, not make the news and anyone hearing about it would shrug.
