Newtownards shooting
Secretary of State James Brokenshire has condemned the brutal shooting of a young man in Newtownards last night.
Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Rt Hon James Brokenshire MP, said:
Shooting someone in the elbows, knees and ankles is barbaric. The criminals who did this do not represent anyone. No one in Northern Ireland wants this; people want to live in a peaceful society. I urge anyone with information about this shooting to contact the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
