Kerry Wycherley insisted the club in Howard Street had "stringent" policies in place and said he did not know how the weapon was smuggled past his doormen.

Daniel Maxwell, 24, from Stirchley, Telford, needed surgery to remove a bullet from his arm after being shot at about 2am on Saturday.

Mr Wycherley said: "What we are doing now is reviewing our procedures. We have been consulting with a retired major from the army."
