A 'serious shooting' has taken place in Co Armagh tonight.
Sinn Fein MP Mickey Brady has condemned the incident in Forkhill this evening.
One man is currently being treated in hospital, Belfast Live reports.
Mr Brady said: "I utterly condemn this horrendous incident and I would appeal for calm as details emerge to avoid any kind of escalation.
"The area is in shock over it. This was a savage attack and something we do not want in our communities.
"There is no justification for this shooting, especially given the fact that when you take weapons onto the street in such a reckless manner there is always the risk of bystanders being injured or killed as well.
"I would urge anyone with any information to contact the police and help get these dangerous criminals off our streets and away from our communities."
The Northern Ireland Ambulance Service scrambled one crew to reports of an assault in the village.
A spokesman said: "We got a call at 18.23 to reports of an assault in the Park Urney area of Forkhill.
"We sent one emergency crew to the scene and following assessment and initial treatment a man was transferred to Craigavon Area Hospital."
