Four people have been arrested after a police officer was shot in the foot in Nottingham city centre.
The officer, who is in a stable condition in hospital, had approached two people in Angel Row at 4.50am on Sunday when he was injured, Nottinghamshire Police said.
The force said officers stopped a vehicle in the Radford area of the city on Sunday evening and arrested a 27-year-old woman on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.
A 24-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman inside the vehicle were also arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender, police said.
Officers stopped a vehicle in Bedfordshire in the early hours of Monday where a 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.
All four suspects are in custody where they are being questioned.
A weapon that appeared to be a sawn off double-barrelled shotgun was pictured at the scene on Sunday, as forensic investigators laid evidence markers within two police cordons.
