Armed police have been deployed to an apartment building in Chatham in Kent after a man began firing indiscriminately at the streets below.
Police were called to the scene at approximately 8:30am local time on Wednesday morning. According to local reports, residents claimed the man was armed with multiple guns and had been randomly shooting at people. There are no reports of injuries or fatalities so far.

The "stay at home" version of mass shooting?

There are twitter videos linked that the guy posted.  I assume that one gun is ported as you can see muzzle flash going straight up.

When the quarantine "orders" came down I wondered how many people already skating on the edge of control would finally break.

While it annoying to get guns in the UK, a lot of sporting arms are legal.
