August 12, 2018

Police officers stand guard at the scene of a shooting at Claremont Road in the Moss Side neighborhood of Manchester, Sunday. Ten people, including two children, were taken to hospital with pellet-type wounds, police said. Officers were called to the Moss Side neighborhood of the city, where a party had been held following a Caribbean Carnival nearby. "Nine people went to hospital, including two children, with pellet-type wounds that are not believed to be serious," a statement from Greater Manchester Police said. "A tenth person remains in a stable but serious condition in hospital with injuries to his legs." Police said they hoped the less seriously injured victims would begin to leave hospital during the course of the day. — AFP
