A security fence has been erected outside health minister Stephen Donnelly's home after "a number of incidents" prompted security concerns.

The 6ft (2m) wooden fence was built outside the minister's home after what sources said were a number of incidents which included items being thrown at windows and left on the doorstep. Mr Donnelly and his wife have three young children.
