La PSNI spara a Carrowdore
Police fire shots during disturbance
Several shots have been fired by police in the Co Down village of Carrowdore.
The PSNI said officers were called to a disturbance on the New Road shortly after midday on Tuesday.
Boulders were thrown at police during the incident.
Four men have been arrested and the Police Ombudsman is now investigating.
DUP Strangford MLA Councillor Jonathan Bell said the incident had caused shock “in what is a quiet community.”
“I have spoken with senior Police and am satisfied that the matter is being fully and appropriately investigated and the Office of the Police Ombudsman has been brought in to play,” he said.
