Three suspected gang- or drug-related shootings occurred late Saturday night and early Sunday morning, police said.

The first occurred at 11:04 p.m. in the 10800 block of Macouba Place when an argument erupted between two groups of teen-agers. The youths had gathered at an outdoor high school-sponsored carnival when the fight began. One youth was shot in the buttocks.

About an hour later, a shooting occurred at Broadway and 12th Avenue when a 26-year-old man was shot in his left leg in what police believe was a drug deal gone sour.
