Police are appealing for witnesses after two shooting incidents in Nottingham on Tuesday evening.

Gunshots were fired after an argument between a group of men on Julep Avenue in St Anns at 1800 BST, police said.

A few minutes later, a car pulled up outside a house on Hungerhill Road and shots were fired in the direction of a home.

No one was hurt in either incident.

In 2001, Nottinghamshire Police introduced armed vehicle patrols across the county as part of an on-going crackdown on gun crime.

In April 2001, an 11-year-old boy was injured after shots were fired at a group of youths from a passing car in the Meadows in Nottingham.

He was taken to hospital where gun pellets were removed from his thigh.
