Man and child injured in shooting
A man and a teenager have been injured in a shooting incident in Newry, County Down.
The attack happened at about 1930 BST on Monday at Barcroft Park when four shots from a shotgun were fired from a car. The 30-year-old man and 14-year-old boy were taken to Daisy Hill Hospital in the town, where they were treated for pellet wounds. The door of a house was damaged in the attack. Newry Sinn Fein councillor Davy Hyland said the incident had frightened people in the area. Mr Hyland said there was a lot of children playing in the street at the time. He said he did not believe paramilitaries were involved in the attack. Police are trying to establish a motive for the attack. |
