WASHINGTON (AP) — Police in Washington were looking for three men accused of shooting six people, including a child, at a barbershop.

A 5-year-old boy who was grazed on his hand was among those wounded Friday evening at Snap's barbershop, news outlets reported.

None of the injuries were considered life-threatening. One man had surgery and was listed in critical but stable condition, D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham said.

The suspects were described as three men who opened fire inside the barbershop and then left in a silver minivan. Police in Washington were working with nearby Prince George's County police to search for the suspects.
