Blood is visible near the scene of a shooting at a North Adelaide restaurant.

Police say shots were fired about 9:40pm on Sunday at and near Caffe Paesano in O’Connell Street and they think the matter is gang-related.

They are hunting a man in his 30s, who fled west along Tynte Street toward Wellington Square.

Police think there were also witnesses who may have more information.

There have been three shootings in Adelaide in recent days which are thought to have gang links.

South Australian Opposition Leader Isobel Redmond is concerned about the number of shootings in public areas.

“Not only do we have an increase in shootings but they’re becoming more brazen and more public and more likely to involve innocent civilians caught in the crossfire,” she said.
