In the Rue Masui in the Brussels municipality of Schaerbeek, another shooting took place on Saturday evening, but it is unclear if anyone was injured, according to the Brussels police.
At around 19:30, the police received several calls from local residents who had heard gunshots. One witness also spoke of an injured person.
When police teams arrived on the scene, however, they found some bullet marks but no victim. Enquiries in the various hospitals in Brussels revealed that no one had been brought in with a gunshot wound either.

"The Brussels public prosecutor's office has been informed and the forensic laboratory went to the scene to make the necessary findings," the police told the Belga News Agency.
For months now, shootings have been making headlines in Brussels, especially in the municipality of Molenbeek. Just last week, a 20-year-old man was shot dead in the Beekkant neighbourhood in Molenbeek, and a few days before, another man was shot in the leg on the Chaussée de Merchtem.
It is unclear if this shooting is linked to those last week.
