A man was shot in a paramilitary-style attack tonight in front of his six-year-old daughter.
A police spokeswoman said two masked men burst into the man’s house on the Abbots estate, Newtownards, Co Down, and shot him in the leg.
The 34-year-old victim was taken to hospital for treatment. The young girl, who was in the kitchen with her father at the time, was not hurt.
In a separate incident, a 25-year-old man was shot in both legs and a hand at a house in Beersbridge Road, east Belfast.
A police spokeswoman said five men entered the property and shot the man while three other occupants were in the house.
