Three shots fired at flat in west Belfast

Three shots fired at flat in west Belfast

An appeal has been issued after shots were fired at a flat in west Belfast on Monday.

At around 8.30pm it was reported that three men dressed in black had entered through the communal main door of a multi-occupancy apartment building in Summerhill Drive in Dunmurry.

They made their way to the second floor, where three shots were fired at a flat door, breaking panes of glass.

It is believed the suspects then made off in the direction of Thornhill Crescent.

The male occupant of the flat was not injured in the incident.

Detectives are investigating and working to establish a motive for the attack.

They are asking anyone with information, or who may have captured footage of the suspects, to get in touch by calling 101 quoting reference 1649 03/02/25, submitting information on the PSNI website, or by contacting the charity Crimestoppers.
