A street in Doncaster has been taped off by police after "gunshots" were heard in the early hours of Monday morning (May 13).
Police said a car was seen speeding off just before 01:00BST, before the incident was reported to them at 07:43BST.
There are no reports of any injuries, but investigations have found damage to a property and two vehicles in Barnby Dun Road in the Wheatley area.
Officers are going house-to-house and looking through CCTV as they continue to search for a suspect.
Detective Inspector Clair Moss from South Yorkshire Police's Armed Crime Team said: "This is an alarming incident that happened in a residential street when many people were fast asleep.
"It is fortunate no one was injured and we are now putting resources into finding the people responsible.
"We are treating this a targeted attack, and we will work relentlessly to bring the offenders of this crime to justice and take dangerous weapons off our streets for good.
"If you witnessed this incident in Barnby Dun Road and haven't yet spoken to police, please do so immediately as even the smallest bit of information could prove to be a vital piece of the jigsaw."
Patrols will be taking place in the local area to offer reassurances to people and anyone with concerns is asked to contact officers.
