Two people have been shot in an attack in Manchester, police have said.
The pair did not suffer life-changing injuries after the incident at about 22:50 BST on Saturday in Claremont Road, Moss Side.
Greater Manchester Police said they remained in hospital for treatment.
Officers said no arrests had been made and appealed for information and footage.
Det Supt Matt Walker said: "Thankfully, the victims' injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, but there could have been worse consequences to this act.
"I want people who live in the area to know that we will never tolerate such acts in our city, and we will be doing all we can to investigate all of its aspects."
He said officers would continue to patrol the area, where thousands have been gathering for the city's annual Caribbean Carnival.
The festivities at Alexandra Park, which includes music, dance and arts, will end later.
