A second person has been arrested on suspicion of murdering a father who was shot dead in Sheffield.
The woman, aged 31, was detained in the early hours in connection with the murder of 32-year-old Kassim Mohammed, who was shot on Watery Street in the Upperthorpe area on Tuesday night.
It follows the arrest on Thursday of a 22-year-old man also on suspicion of Mr Mohammed's murder.
Det Ch Insp Andy Knowles said officers were now treating his death as a "targeted attack".
The officer said: "We are working hard to determine the circumstances which led up to this awful incident and the death of Kassim."
In a tribute released on Thursday, Mr Mohammed's family said his death would "leave a void in our hearts that will never be filled".
South Yorkshire Police has appealed for anyone with information or who has relevant video footage to get in touch.
