In a statement, issued on behalf of Hislop, he said: 'He can confirm that there was an incident in a taxi yesterday in which a rear window shattered, and the police are investigating. They were initially looking into the possibility of a shot having been fired but have now indicated that there may be another more innocent explanation for what happened.'
A spokesperson for Metropolitan Police said: 'Police continue to investigate the circumstances around an incident in Soho on Tuesday morning. The driver of a London black taxi called police... reported that he was stationary in traffic when a shot was fired towards his vehicle, striking the window.'
The Metropolitan Police has confirmed there is no evidence of a firearms discharge at this time. Initial indications suggest a mechanical fault might have caused the window to shatter.
