Abstract It was shown in arXiv:1410.7168 that compactifying D = 6, N = 1 0 $$ \mathcal{N}=\left(1,0\right) $$ ungauged supergravity coupled to a single tensor multiplet on S3 one gets a particular D = 3, N = 4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ gauged supergravity which is a consistent reduction. We construct two supersymmetric black string solutions in this 3-dimensional model with one and two active scalars respectively. Uplifting the first, one gets a dyonic string solution in D = 6 that has been known for a long time. Whereas, uplifting the second solution, one finds a very interesting configuration where magnetic strings are located uniformly on a circle in a plane within the 4-dimensional flat transverse space and electric strings are distributed homogeneously inside this circle. Both solutions have AdS3 × S3 limits.
