Dungannon 'attempted murder' probe launched after shots fired at man

Shots have been fired in an ‘attempted murder’ incident in a Co Tyrone industrial estate, police say.

The PSNI says detectives have arrested a 29-year-old man “on suspicion of attempted murder following an overnight incident in the Granville Industrial Estate in Dungannon”.

A police spokesman added: “It’s understood two males, both 25, were threatened by another two men armed with handguns at around 10.40pm. Shots were fired at one of the men as he ran away however thankfully he was not struck.”

Detectives in Mid Ulster CID are “working to establish the full circumstances and are appealing for information”.

They say that anyone who can assist the police investigation is asked to contact detectives on 101, quoting reference 38 12/11/20 or ring Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111
