Up to eight people were killed when unidentified gunmen went berserk firing at spectators and players at a cricket ground in southwestern Pakistan on Friday, reports said.



The incident took place in a suburb of Balochistan capital Quetta which has lately witnessed an uptick in sectarian violence.



Police told mediapersons that the assailants stormed the ground in two vehicles, initially firing rockets and then shooting indiscriminately at spectators. Fifteen people were also injured in the attack. The dead included spectators as well as cricketers.



Even though there was no apparent motive for the killings, the dead were members of the Shia Hazara community often targeted by Sunni extremists. The Shia Hazaras had also come under attack in the past from Baluchi tribesmen who demand greater autonomy for the region and a bigger share of its mineral wealth.



No one has claimed responsibility for the attack so far.
