Man charged following shooting

A man has been charged after another man was shot in the leg in Stoke-on-Trent.

Jesse Dyche, 26, from Stoke-on-Trent, appeared at North Staffordshire Justice Centre today (2 September) charged with wounding with intent and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.

It comes after we were called to Dawlish Drive on Wednesday (30 August) following reports that a man had been shot in the leg.

A 23-year-old woman from Stoke-on-Trent, who was arrested in connection with the incident, has since been released on conditional police bail.

Dyche has been remanded in custody and is due to appear at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on 2 October.
