Police described the shooting as 'reckless'
Police were alerted at around 9pm last night by concerned members of the public who reported hearing three shots in the Weaste area. Officers then found that a gun had been blasted on Jane Street.
Detective Inspector Justin Bryant, of GMP’s Salford crime investigation department, said: "Thankfully, no injuries were reported to us but this was reckless and we are trying hard to establish what has happened that led up to us being called. We are in the very early stages of our investigation and our main priority now is focusing on a white SUV vehicle which was seen in the area around the time of the incident, finding this vehicle may help us know more about what has happened.
"If you have any concerns about this incident, our officers will be happy to provide reassurance and listen to any of your questions. It is so important if you have any information, or saw anything suspicious to come forward and speak to us, whether it is CCTV footage, doorbell footage, photos, or descriptions of the suspects or events, we would ask that you report it to us directly.
