Two men have been sentenced to a total of 78 years in prison for a drive-by shooting that injured three women outside a bar in Wolverhampton, West Midlands. On 26 February 2026, Shaun Andrews and DeShaun White were sentenced at Wolverhampton Crown Court for the attack which took place on 27 September 2024.

Shaun Andrews, aged 24, received a 40-year sentence and 22-year-old DeShaun White was given 38 years. Both men were found guilty of three counts of attempted murder and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.

The shooting happened at around 11:00 PM outside Jack’s Cafe & Bar on Frederick Street when shots were fired from a black Seat Ibiza into a crowd. According to West Midlands Police, the three women who were hit by the gunfire are still continuing to recover from the injuries they suffered that night.

Officers intercepted the Seat Ibiza on Parkfield Road two days after the shooting, leading to the arrest of White. Andrews was later caught in Manchester after fleeing to Scotland.
