Two in street shots grilling

ATTACK: Search for clues TWO men have been arrested after 12 people were injured in a shooting following a carnival.

A 12-year-old girl was among those hurt at a street party in Moss Side, Manchester.

The men, aged 24 and 30, had been arrested in the Baguley and Fallowfield areas of the city.

They are being held on suspicion of attempted murder and possession of a firearm.

Armed and unarmed officers were deployed to the shooting last month.

The incident happened during a street party after Manchester’s Caribbean Carnival.

Police said several people received pellet injuries but none were life-threatening.

Detective Chief Inspector Colin Larkin said: “Since this dangerous attack we have trawled through all available CCTV and intelligence to try and piece together the events of that morning.

“Today our investigation has led us to the arrest of two men and we will continue to question them in relation to the shooting.

“Our priority is, and will continue to be, to find those responsible.”
