This is the damning footage showing a gun-toting thug hanging from the window of a BMW as a petty rival gang feud spilled out onto the street. An innocent member of the public was caught up in the mindless violence - narrowly escaping with their life as a bullet hit their car.
In broad daylight, Sean Cowie, 32, fires a handgun twice on a Tuesday afternoon in Newton Heath.. Detectives said someone could easily have been killed.
Minshull Street Crown Court heard that 39-year-old David Urey was behind the wheel of the BMW. The pair were then followed by Paul Ryan, 42 who was in another VW Golf, and the chase continued along Droylsden Road towards Ashton before the three cars split up.

The shooting came as part of an ongoing dispute between two gangs. And was committed in retaliation after those in the Golf they chased had ‘very badly beaten up’ a friend of theirs, the court was told.
The gun was supposed to be ‘waved as a warning’ and not fired, Ryan claimed.
"Somebody quite easily could have been killed on that day," Detective Inspector Claire Moss told the Manchester Evening News. "An innocent member of the public who was on his way home from work has had his vehicle hit.
"There were people wandering around on the streets. Bullets could have ricocheted off anything, they could have hit anybody.
"He's (Cowie) in a moving vehicle, not experienced in the use of firearms so those bullets could have gone anywhere."
Cowie was jailed for five years and seven months, Urey for five years and four months and Ryan was sentenced to six-and-a-half years.
"This was broad daylight on a busy road in Greater Manchester,"
