Victims injured in a shooting in Manchester were hit by pellets fired from a shotgun in what is being treated as attempted murder, police have said.
Children as young as 12 were injured in the incident at around 2.30am on Sunday morning, as a crowd of several hundred people enjoyed a street party following the Caribbean Carnival in Moss Side.
Greater Manchester Police are investigating the shooting as attempted murder but have not yet identified a motive for the “reckless” act.
And we have this marvelous statement from the head cop:
Ch Supt Choudhry said that “thankfully” none were life-threatening,
adding: “It would be obvious to any particular person that discharging a
firearm in a large crowd like this is completely reckless.”
No shit?
