An attempted murder inquiry has been launched after a man in his twenties was shot during an incident in a car park, according to police.

The man arrived at hospital with a gunshot wound at about 22:00 BST on Saturday after an argument between several men in a car park off Oak Lane and Victor Street in Bradford, a West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said.

The man's injuries were described as serious but not believed to be life-threatening.
