Four people, including a 16-year-old girl, have been injured in a shooting at an engagement party in Manchester.
Police were called just after 1am to reports of a number of people arriving at hospital with apparent gunshot wounds.
Four people attended hospital in total, one man aged 54 is being treated for serious injuries to his arm and another 48 year old man is in a serious condition and has undergone surgery.
A 27 year old woman and a 16 year old girl were also injured - although police say it is unclear whether this is a result of a gunshot, debris from the discharge or from the disturbance at the scene.
The teen has been discharged from hospital.
Greater Manchester Police believe the group were at an engagement party at a home in Birch Hall Lane in Longsight where a large amount of people had gathered.
Five shots were fired after a fight broke out.
Around an hour later police received a report of a car on its roof nearby.
The force said: "It is uncertain whether this was connected to the shootings but detectives are exploring every line of inquiry, and out of caution are treating this as linked at this time."
Superintendent John Harris from the City of Manchester District said: "This kind of behaviour is completely unacceptable, and will not be tolerated.
"Our enquiries are still in the very early stages as we piece together what took place overnight, but we are currently at the scene and we are collating any evidence that can aid in our pursuit of who is responsible.
"We understand that this incident is worrying for the community, we have extra police patrols in place, and we will work to find out exactly what has happened, and bring those responsible to justice.
"As we piece together the details, if you live in the area, and heard anything last night then I urge you to contact us, as any information could really help at this stage."
