The children -- a 12-year-old girl and a 13-year old boy -- suffered non-life threatening gunshot wounds, the Milwaukee Police said in a statement.
They were part of a group of kids throwing snowballs at passing cars Saturday evening in Milwaukee, a city of about half a million people 90 miles (145 kilometers) north of Chicago.
"One of the snowballs struck a white Toyota, no further description, and the driver of the auto fired shots into the group of kids striking the two victims," the statement said.
The department asked for help identifying the shooter.
