Lamar was taken to hospital as medics battled to save his life but he was pronounced dead a short time later.

South Yorkshire Police said “multiple shots were discharged at the motor vehicle” and the offenders involved are believed to have fled the scene in a white Ford Fiesta, which was later found burnt out in the Darnall area.

Two arrests have been made so far over the shooting, with suspects held on suspicion of assisting an offender before being released under investigation as the police probe progresses.
