Shooting in Belfast

There's been another shooting incident in Northern Ireland.

A doorman has been killed at a discotheque in Belfast when gunmen stopped outside the club and opened fire.

Police are so far unable to say whether the shooting had a sectarian motive.

But a BBC Correspondent in Belfast says the shooting is similar to recent attacks by Protestant paramilitary gunmen.

It comes on the day that a Protestant party, the Progressive Unionists -- which represents the views of one paramilitary group -- is to decide whether to withdraw from multi-party talks which begin again on Monday.

The group has objected to British government concessions to the mainly Roman Catholic republican parties.
