A man (19) was shot three times in the leg in Belfast last night in what police are describing as a paramilitary-style shooting.
The incident occurred when three men burst into the victim's home in the loyalist Mount Vernon Drive, off the Shore Road area of North Belfast, shortly before 9 p.m.
The victim was shot three times in the thigh, according to a spokesman for the Police Service of Northern Ireland. He was said to be recovering in hospital today.
