At least four people, including a two-year-old girl, were wounded after unidentified gunmen attacked them in restive Indian-controlled Kashmir, police said Saturday, Trend reports citing Xinhua.

The attack took place on Friday evening at village Dangerpora of Sopore in Baramulla district, about 52 km west of Srinagar city, the summer capital of Indian-controlled Kashmir.

"Four people including a two-year-old baby girl were wounded last evening after unidentified gunmen barged into their house and fired upon them in Dangerpora, Sopore," a police official said.

"The wounded persons were immediately referred to a local medical facility, from where they were referred to Srinagar hospitals."

A government official said arrangements were underway to airlift the critically wounded two-year old baby girl to New Delhi for an advanced treatment.

On Thursday, a non-local labour was wounded after he was fired upon by unidentified gunmen in the area.

Police suspect the involvement of militants in the attacks.
